      if not surprising, perhaps a reason the US may fare better re: Trump than Britain fared re: Brexit :)

      Also monarchies seem ridiculous in the US. Less so in Europe.

      reading the EU constitution makes me want to scream "WE ALREADY MADE THAT MISTAKE IN THE 1780s" repeatedly

      how do you propose forming a union between states without mentioning who the heads of those states are?

          I don't think that's quite right. Our Supreme Court has a lot of power to reshape the meaning... principles remain

          it's shocking to me that the treaty allows brexit. The US required a war to attempt it, and never again.

          big sticking point appears to be, if other members of EU don’t agree to exit plan in 2 years does that mean UK can’t leave?

          the framers wanted to indicate that it was a compact of the people, so they left it off; not an accident! 2/2

          but to establish the EU legally required the sign-off of the heads of states - but EU is certainly initiative of ppl

          one other thing, the preamble you quote is a signing document, not a preamble in US sense (setting out scope)

          the full preamble does, actually, feel like it's serving the same purpose

          so that EU document isn’t a constitution in the way you view it, I bet most EU’ers haven’t even read it
