Strong constitution
Christian Century, Sept 20, 2005
STRONG CONSTITUTION: If John Nichols could help the Iraqis write their constitution, he would have them erect a wall of separation between state and religion, preserve the rights of minorities, protect against abuse by military and police authorities and guarantee freedom of speech and the press.
If he could reach really high, he would limit the power of corporate monopolies and other special interests that control politics, treat health care and good education as basic rights and provide a reliable electoral system. "But as an American," says Nichols, "I should not worry about perfecting the Iraqi constitution before I go about the work of getting things right here at home" (the Nation, September 29).
