Option 4. Monarchy is a terrible system of government, and while I appreciate that by this point the Queen is mainly decorative, there's something discomforting in the principle of the thing. As a general rule, I don't support running one's country via a genetic lottery, nor do I believe having fancy parents and wearing a special hat makes one the legitimate ruler of a country, so I could never support any monarchy; that said, the royal family is relatively harmless as hereditary rulers go, and it's not really my business if the British want to retain this last link to the Dark Ages.
