Thank you.

This document is over 460 pages long. How many of you have read the whole thing? By comparison the US constitution, including the Declaration of Independence and all 27 amendments fits in a 58 page booklet that you can easily carry in a shirt pocket.

Are you guys sure you know what you're getting?

This article may answer the question of whether the E.U. is already a European super state. Regardless of how you feel about swastika's the E.U. apparently feels it has the authority to ban them in all of its member nations. Sounds like a super state to me.

The European Union may consider banning Nazi symbols in its 25 member nations after Britain's Prince Harry wore a swastika armband to a costume party, the bloc's top justice official said Monday.

I think the idea in its self is intresting but thats it. Europe is made of too many nations with strong national pride and underlying diffrences to ever unite into a super power. The only 2 Europeans to comment on this have said they would vote no. It all looks good on paper but i dont ever see it working in reality, of course Texas is far removed from Europe, thats just my opinion.

Hey, last time I checked I was European too! (yeah, Danish isn't only a pastry ;-) it's also a nationality)
I think that this constitution looks promising and is going to vote yes to it - and opposed to Guzzies little Sweden we are going to have a referendum :-D

Nationality isn't a constant and can change pretty fast. The greastest threats to European coorporation is national chauvinism and corrupt bureaucracy.

Au contraire, national chauvinism is the the only thing protecting us from becomign total slaves to that corrupt bureocracy.

Red avitar = change in philosophy or change of scenery?
