If the people in a country make decision(vote) that goes against the "main stream" politics it has its reasons.

There is a reason to why many people from Iceland put their vote on the Pirate Party.

No, I have not read so much about the political situation in Iceland, I only know that people don't vote on partiers that is outside the "main stream" without any reasons.

Well, Captain Morgan has a number of good friends including Johnnie Walker, Jim Beam and of course, Jack Daniels, that can help form his cabinet or sit in the cabinet if need be.
