Doler are accessed to vote an “Internet Chancellor” for a period of four months. This “Internet Chancellor” organizes chats with politicians and other celebrities (e.g. Franz Müntefering, Christian Wulff, Günter Verheugen)[2] and starts referendums to develop the community. But the ultimate decision makers are the owner of dol2day, DEESITE GbR, a German company constituted under civil law.
