precisely. if we end up deciding that these founding documents may actually be changed, there's also the issue of HOW they may be changed. given that they are at least as important (far more so, IMO) than the constitution, the same standard should be applied to them as to the consitution....i.e. a 3:1 supermajority (or is it 2:1? i can't recall at the moment). lets sort that out and clarify the constitutional issues before proceeding with a vote which may be (and almost certainly is) constitutionally invalid. craig -- craig sanders
