Constitution rewriting needs

[Galmin]

To be accepted, the constitution has to be rewritten.

No public vote, only referendum by delegates.



Not 100%, but merely the acceptance from 75% of the states needed to go on, thus forcing the remaining 25% to hop along (or start a civil war) if need be.



Estimated four months needed to rewrite the constitution, another ten months to ratify it.



To get the delegates votes, a pseudonym (used by three or more pro-constitution propagandists) has to be created that can use unlimited space in major newspapers drumming for the constitution. Suggested pseudonym: 'Publius'.



The 'no' camp will use the following phrases:

"Citizens! You are lucky to live in --insert state in question here--, where we have the best government in the world. Do not let this government be destroyed by the new Constitution. Do not let a few men -- men with great names -- seize control of your lives."



It's the 1780's, the delegates to the Philadelphia convention had met in secret and there were only 13 states.

.....And those 13 states became the beacon for the rest of the world as millions poured in to contribute of themselves and share in the blessings bestowed on what was to destined to be the only super-power on earth.











All & all a nice ending, I'd say; but the greatness is a growing, ongoing saga, so be sure to take notes!

Yes, please take notes:



1) There never was a public vote to ratify the US constitution, though misled people on this board (WASPs?) protests loudly when a EU member state do it exactly the same way as all the member states in the US did.



2) The US constitution needed 3/4th (75%) acceptance to get green light, the EU constitution needs 4/4 (100%) and all we hear is how undemocratic EU is.



3) The US constitution needed to be rewritten to be ratified. Any additional comment is superfluous.
