Little Green Men

When Anton Zelinski first met the aliens, they asked to be taken to his leader.

Anton found this a difficult question. He considered his wife momentarily but, on reflection, rejected the idea as a bit too personal. The mayor might have been suitable, although Anton had never thought much of him. And the President seemed a little out of Anton’s immediate reach.

Further enquiries revealed that the aliens expected someone more akin to a monarch, anyway. Anton discerned that the aliens were much in need of instruction in the workings of democracy and signed them up for a civics course.
