Although you probably know that your life began when two cells united, do you know that those who create a nation are continuing a long history of things that unite?  Atoms unite and form a molecule; molecules unite and form a cell; cells unite and form a person; and people unite to form a nation.  After billions of years of uniting on earth, we are the first units to develop a brain that can understand what is going on...  I will be glad to send you the rest of my proposal.  From:  David Hollist, constitution
