here's the first one, the more political one.  The second one (later
sometime) is more mathematical.

Proto:  On all our houses

Repeal 1688, 1482, and 1030.
[Note:  order of things must be considered for this bootstrapping]

Enact the following Rule, entitled "All our houses"

    House is a stuck switch for Rules, Proposals, Players,
    and  CFJs with values Ordinary, Senatorial, Democratic,
    and Constitutional.  A Player may change eir house at
    any time, except a Player may not be Constitutional.

    A Proposal may be submitted to any house (default
    Ordinary), and adoption depends on the Rules of that
    house.  A Constitutional Rule is submitted simultaneously
    to all houses, and must be adopted by all houses to
    take effect.

    A non-Constitutional Proposal submitted to a specific
    house may only change Rules within that house, following
    submission and adoption procedures specified by that
    house's rules.   If no adoption Rules exist in that house,
    or a Constitutional Court finds the Rules of that house
    do not allow the adoption of a proposal in reasonable
    time, the default procedure for resolving decisions
    is followed.

Enact the following Rule, entitled 'Judicial Houses'

    A CFJ may be submitted to any house (default Senatorial).
    A Constitutional CFJ (also called an "Appeal") convenes
    a panel of one player from each house, appointed as
    described by the Rules of that house.

    A conflict bewteen Rules within a house is resolved
    by a CFJ submitted to that house according to the
    Rules of that house.  If no Rules exist in that house, or
    a Constitutional Court finds the Rules of that house
    do not allow the resolution of a CFJ in reasonable
    time, the default procedure for resolving CFJs
    is followed.

    If Rules conflict between houses, they can only
    be adjudicated by a Constitutional CFJ.  In such
    cases, Constitional Rules may define methods for
    which certain houses have precedence over others
    for certain types of Rules.  If Constitutional
    Rules are otherwise silent, precedence is ordered
    as specified by the list of possible houses.

Enact the following Rule, entitled "Primary regulations"

    If something is said by the Rules of a house to
    be "primarily regulated" by that house, then
    that house's rules have precedence over other
    houses for that thing.  If Rules of two houses
    conflict over claiming primary regulation, the
    older (lower-Numbered) Rule so claiming shall
    have precedence.


The above Rules are all made Constitutional.

Constitutional protections to add later [if this proto
is liked]

     1.  [Rights and privileges]
     2.  [If mechanism breaks down, a unaimous vote of
          all players can change rules of any house]
     3. [If all else fails, a CFJ can enpanel three
         players regardless of house to sort things out]
     4. [default procedures]

Upon the adoption of this Proposal, [All Rules]
are mapped onto [Houses] as follows:
