Control over food, primarily, and natural resources, secondarily, has been key for, eh, many moons

Play a few rounds of Civ4 and you get reminded in a big hurry.

I just played the Demo tonight. Yep I am going to have to buy it.

Is the new BG as good as the old one was? (For it's time?)

Unless you happen to get a Calvin. His aloofness is beyond teen-age...

Civ4...you shouldn't have told me...that means I have to buy it and disapeer into the computer for a week at least.

There's a Civ 4?! I fell in love with Civ 2 when it first came out. Since then, I've considered it the be-all-end-all of PC games.

Of course, I don't really play many PC games.

In some states, the constitution can be changed by popular vote. Texas and Oklahoma are notable for having to make every little adjustment by constitutional amendment; it's pretty messy, actually!

However, the state legislatures (bigger than your city council, but smaller than parliament :-), have to vote on amendments to the national constitution. And unfortunately, in terms of the "born citizen" issue, a state can't vote to reject the children of foreigners as citizens, because the national law overrides.
