Kövér László (2012 April - 2012 May)
Since Schmitt had to gone ahead of time, temporarily the Speaker of the National Assembly served as an acting President, and it was Kövér. I won't spend time on him for this reason.
Áder János (2012-)
Jurist but nothing exceptional. Basically an ancient Fideszchik, basically knows Orbán since his uni years, not a founder but entered the Fidesz very early. Vice-president of the party a couple of times. Was Speaker of the National Assembly, representative in the EU Parliament.
His election was controversial. Fidesz-KDNP with it's 2/3 did easy job. Only other party which voted was the Jobbik, all with No. Other parties did not vote or left the Assembly before the vote. Nice circus.
I think his activity is entirely scripted by the Fidesz leadership. He is very busy signing every law they put in front of him.
So that's it. The balance isn't even that bad. I'm not sure what the future holds. Right now the Fidesz holds the steering wheel firm, not sure when their hands will fall off. So they deal the cards, and their cadres get the positions.
