	President of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While both Irish and UK citizens resident in the state may vote in elections to Dáil Éireann (the lower house of parliament), only Irish citizens, who must be at least eighteen years of age, may vote in the election of the President.
		The Taoiseach is appointed upon the nomination of Dáil Éireann (the lower house of parliament), and the remainder of the cabinet upon the nomination of the Taoiseach.
		The office of President of Ireland was established in 1937, in part as a replacement for the office of Governor-General that existed during the 1922-1937 Irish Free State.

	Irish Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Irish Republic is generally considered to have come to an end in 1922 at the latest, when it was superseded by the Irish Free State.
		The military branch of the Irish Republic were the Irish Volunteers who, shortly after the outbreak of the War of Independence, were renamed as the "Irish Republican Army" to reflect their status as the national army of the new republic.
		The judicial arm of the Irish Republic consisted of a network of Dáil Courts administered by IRA officers, which at first operated in parallel with the British judicial system, and gradually came to supersede it as public opinion swung against the British.

		The leader of the main nationalist party in Northern Ireland, John Hume, has said he is moving towards accepting invitations to become the next president of the Irish Republic.
		He was quoted as saying that, while he had not made up his mind, he was "tending towards" acceptance of offers to be president which had come from both government and opposition political parties in Dublin.
		But his clear move towards considering the Irish presidency could show that Mr Hume believes there is now an end in sight to his work for a Northern Ireland settlement, according to some observers in Dublin.
