The only qualification for being King is being in the right place at the right time.....as mere accident of birth puts you in the queue....and all you can do is hope a vacancy opens up when you are next up.
I am sure Jug Ears is very familiar with that concept.....just that his Mum is being very slow in providing him the opportunity.
In fact....one can wonder if he should have taken up alternate pursuits as he might just miss getting to sit in the Big Chair the way things are going.
