Actually, no. That would be Pippin. And if Thainship is the basis on which you base "favouritism", I advise you to move over the Pippin camp.
Sam's title is Mayor of Michel Delving (and therefore, of the rest of the Shire). T'is a role of no less prestige than Thain, really, but a good deal less power. His only real duty is to preside at banquets.
And, I ask you, is someone thought fit only for banquet hosting and toasting worth the pre-eminent place in your hobbit-loving hearts?
