Rewrite the Constitution? Why wait for the election?!
•
by Brian Boru
Ladies and gentlemen, the esteemed vice-presidential candidate has said that a rewrite of the Constitution is on the cards if you vote for uaithne. The idea is that our Constitution doesn't take the game mechanics into account, and that we're slowly reforming it via amendments. He also mentions that the Constitution has "lawyer-speak".
What relevence this has to a Presidential campaign, I do not know.
Any member of the Dail can start a constitutional change, Darragh can start a new constitutional discussion right now if he wanted to, regardless of who is elected President.
Why the song and dance about it?
Put your money where your mouth is Darragh, start this change now if it is so necessary!
Using this as a political issue for an election when you can immediately start to correct it is ridiculous...
EDIT:
I must say that I don't disagree with the idea of scrapping the Constitution.
I think countries, virtual or otherwise, should do that after a while to keep the law fresh and to insure that people agree with the terms.
My problem is that this could have easily been started without the big show about it.
Let's get moving on this ASAP rather than trumpeting it to the skies to no effect!
Brian Boru,
Socialist.

I like your style Brian always stirring the pot 🙂
Agreed. Your level of style is immeasurable.
Of course, the word pot could always be used in another context here.
Agreed brian, all talk backed up with no actions.
very nice
@Digits: It all depends on your perspective 🙂
These words of urgence come from a man who vanished for weeks, months?
Amusing.
you really shouldn't sign off as "socialist" you might scare the americans
Sounds like someone is taking offense that his constitution is being trashed.
The constitution is almost entirely different from when you made it anyway. Every week Digits or somebody else proposes some change to a part of the constitution. By doing this we can start completely fresh
Your right though about Darragh starting right now.
But like Nith I do find your words slightly ironic
I absolutely agree with you Brian!
If you checked the public Dáil you would see that i've made a quick attempt at a Supreme Court proposal. Rewriting the constitution is an ongoing process.
"Sounds like someone is taking offense that his constitution is being trashed. "
Missed the edit did you?
I have no problem with it being trashed.
My problem is that trashing it is an election issue.
I have to agree, lets not trash the constitution all together. We need one and besides, eIreland was the first country to create one. If we do try to write a new one lets make it so it can be approved by the admins. The only thing the admins said it needed to be approved was to be enforceable. They told me this when I tried to have it approved back during the early summer.
I'l re-write the constitution for y'all.
