I would like to request a Constitution child board for the U.S. General Discussion Board. We seem to have quite a few constitutional topics in U.S. General; a child board for it might be a nice idea.

This is a great idea. Also, any threads that deteriorate into "Is ____ Constitutional?" discussions should immediately be moved to this board. No more plodding through the Emsworth/A18 drivel. Tongue

Bump

Instead of a child board, I think that a full Legal Discussion Board might be a good idea. We do get a lot of topics relating to the Supreme Court, the Constitution, etc.

guys we hardly use the new child boards anyways.  Look at how empty the "books" and "essays" forums are.  Why will this one be any different?

I can think of at least two people who would fill it within days.

Yes: we had about 15 new constitutional topics in the last two or three days alone.

If this happens, Emsworth would make a perfect moderator.

Hey Dave,

If I provide a list of topics, can you move them to the Constitution Board?
