    Actually, I would see all the rest as a result of the first.  The leader 
of a nation being in the reckoner's pocket (as it were), well that should 
tell you that place isn't a nice place to retire.  Unless you happen to think 
the Reckoners are great guys of course.
   If you'd rather it be the otherway around, I don't see any reason why not.
