I was not here for the golden age of the Fantasy Elections. When I came in, I thought it was a Fantasy Elections/Government board.
I echo ShapeShifter's sentiments. If a constitution undergoes writing, one cannot but assume there is some Government involved.
I originally figured that the Constitution would be writen soley for the purpose of establishing election rules. Those rules would then be enforced (non-partisanly) by the group. That's it. I never figured on powers being granted or anything like that.
My impression is that the Constitution IS mostly election rules. Isn't that what all the debates we are having are about?
