    Good idea, at last we can get the world to read The Constitution!
    But how do we handle the different national character sets?

P.S.	If there is an american constitution, we would like to
	see that too.

MY GOD! You mean we let this stuff get out of the Country?  Where's the
NSA when we *really* need them?  Any thing else is suitable for worldwide
distribution, but net.politics should be halted at the border for reasons
of National security.  (Do I really need a :-)?  probably)

Yes there is a Constitution of the United States, and eleven people have
volunteered to help copy it.  It should be forthcoming soon, and then the
world can see if it has any bearing in reality.

I hope this falls under the scope of the :-) in the title.  I'd
hate to think that all we netters are total egomaniacs who think
that something is real if and only if we have discussed it!!

The Constitution, the Country?  And how long have you had this Curious
Compulsion to Capitalize all C's? Since you became a C programmer?:-)

You have got something here, namely the fact that there is no usa.politics,
or usa.anything.else.  Why not create a usanet for usa.politics, and 
leave net.politics to discussions which concern all of us here on the
net?  

Net.politics (or what we have seen of it so far, not all of it gets
into the Country(sic)) is a bit of a disappointment to some of us here in
Europe, we had hoped for something more international in character.
On the other hand, eunet.politics has had some (not many) lively
discussions which might be of interest to you in the states, topics
including the NATO and Warsaw pact missiles, acid rain, and much 
flaming about Ronnie.  (Of course, comrade Chernenko can be a bore :-)).

Leapin' Lenin!  Can you imagine what the Ruskies could do with even ONE bad
article from net.jokes?  The results would be frightening!  And when they
found out about all those crazed rent control/anti-rent control people in
California....

Hey! how come us usa'ers don't get to see eunet.politics, or whatever.
Just another example of how us poor Americans are discriminated
against in the world. (Murder a few babies and everybody hates ya).

>> why don't we usaers get eunet.politics...

It's our revenge for your high tech export restrictions.
You get rid of the restrictions and we'll send you
eunet.all, what do you say, huh.  :-)
