If you founded a nation, what would you be sure to include in your constitution?

Answer 1

Intellectual freedom.

Answer 2

I would model it off of the US constitution, though I would change the appointment of electoral votes to be distributed by congressional district. The system is a good one in theory, and I like it. The apportionment of electoral votes would be that you get one per congressional district that you win, and the person who winds the popular vote in that state would get the two votes from the senate.

I would also guarantee freedom for discrimination in any forms, race, gender and sexual orientation. I would also make sure that it contained as strong judiciary, and the control of the armed forces would go to the congress, though the congress could vote to transfer that authority to the president in cases of national emergency for a maximum of one year.

I would also authorize recall votes for the president.

Impeachment would be limited to cases where nay laws used in the case must undergo review by the supreme court, fixed at 11 members, which would have to approve the law as constitutional by a 2 vote majority. 4-7 minimum.

Impeachment cases would be restricted as well in what qualifies as a High crime or misdemeanor. The offense to be used as a charge against the president must relate to the workings of government, and testimony must be limited to affairs of state. (not lying about a BJ.)

There's a lot more I would do, but I'm tired and am not going to type all of it.

Answer 3

I would use Americas constitution and add the letter written be George Pickney and signed by Washington, Franklin. Gwinnett, and Jefferson, that said to never let Jews immigrate to America , as they knew what they would do as they had been kicked out of England for developing a state within the state and gaining power over them thru finances and political influence, and within 200 years your children will be working in the fields for them while they sit in their offices and gleefully count their money, well , my friend it has happened right on schedule, even after these warnings, this letter never made it to the floor to be voted on and I have not been able to find out what happened as to why , but you can get a copy from the George Washington institute,

laws they can only design them the public must vote on
everything. every law passed must be a single issue only.

Answer 5

A provision by which it would take a 2/3 majority of the congress to make a law, but only a 1/3 minority to repeal a law.
If you cannot get signifigantly more than 2 out of 3 people to agree that a law is necessary, It is a lousy law and shouldn't be imposed upon the remaining dissenters.
