Constitutional Amendment: Article E

[Donovan Zoi]

We need 1 vote for this measure to pass. And while you are here, please vote YES in this thread so that there will be no more hand-wringing about the passage of near-unanimous polls such as this.

 

[Comnenus]

It's come down to this: me begging for your vote! 1 YES vote is needed to pass this Article. Please don't let the people of Japanatica down. Vote YES! This poll is going to close soon, so VOTE YES NOW!

 

[Black_Hole]

Let's just pretend that the vote made it. Call it a computational error. No one cares. It clearly passed. Just because it was a tiny fraction below the necessary participation doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of particapants ratified it. Let's just put it in anyway.

Then, what good is the Constitution? If you break one rule, then any rule can be broken with impunity.

Japanatica should not be a banana republic without laws, without procedures and without respect for the laws we pass ourselves. We will not see rigged elections, and we will not see Flordastyle election ballots. I support Comnenus 100 % here against the Abstain guerrilla who does not want a constitution, and hope we will get the votes.

Besides, we should maybe shift legal tradition from the Napolenic Code of Constitution, and use Common Law instead, a Common Law we pass, will still make Zarn Governor.

I happen to like Napoleonic Code. Guilty until proven innocent! Used to live in New Orleans, dah'lin. You know there's still a guillotine out behind the Courthouse? Maybe Cyc could use it now and again.

this would upset the whole idea about democracy, even if laws are bad you cant break them, we will just have to try again and rally support
