Historians have found an early draft of the Constitution titled "The Constitution of the Scheme."

I imagine someone with a better mind toward PR suggested, "You know, maybe we need a better name for the thing. It might not be the best idea to come right out and tell everyone it's a scheme."

What a whole bunch of nothing. Jesus, its nice to see journalism giving you 1000+ words and not telling you a goddamn thing. What the fuck is so important about this document? Nowhere in the article does it state how its different from The Constitution.

The word "scheme" didn't have the same sinister meaning back then as it has today. So this would be more ironic than instructive.

Of course not. I was just having a little fun with it.  :lol:
