I'm sure he can do that.

Let's see Pulls-Paper-Out-of-Hats Lad's powers...

He can pull pieces of paper out of a hat faster than any being in the
Looniverse (including God).  As long as he has that extra thumb of course.

He can pull any type of paper out of his hat.  (He could use this power to
steal money from banks and snatch secret government documents -- not that
he'd ever do that unless he had a good reason).  If there's such a thing as
Omnipotent Paper he could pull that out of a hat too.

He can divine the truth using the paper out of his hat (Martin I think gave
him that power when he used it to find out which Manga Man was the real one
in that Just Imagine add-on story).  I suppose he could probably use his
powers to predict the future (get some lottery numbers).

So when it gets down to it Pulls-Paper-Out-of-Hats Lad probably is
incredibly powerful.

All that said, I don't think I have any desire to ever write a
Pulls-Paper-Out-of-Hats Lad as Leader of the LNH story though...

Hmm... who would be an interesting character to write a LNH Leader for a Day
story about?

Oh!  I've got it!  Self-Righteous Preacher.  Now there's a character who
probably has a great desire to lead the LNH.  And make all kinds of changes
to how the LNH operates.

Self-Righteous Preacher as Leader of the LNH would be pretty funny.  Like
those episodes of MASH where Frank Burns is put in charge.

Dibs on Self-Righteous Preacher.

Master Blaster would be fun as Leader too, but I'll leave that to someone
else.
