This situationbreeds plea bargaining and criminals who get a whole lot less of a sentence than they deserve. Proposition # 1 is the best and least expensive plan available to fix the current deplorablesystem. Proposition# 2 will providethe operatingfunds to iµakeProposition # 1 work. If voter approval puts both of these in place, the criminal element will experience swift, inescapablejustice and a lot less chance to plea bargain.

Constitution weef(and its meaning by Lenore Jameso n By Presidential Proclamation the week of September 17 through Sept 23 is ConstitutionWeek. Americawas in a state of chaos in 1787. Each state issued its own money, taxed imports, andacted as an independent nation. There was no backing for the currency, no funds for an Anny, no coherent form of govemmenL What they did do was authorizea Constitutional Convention to be made up of delegates from the 13 states or colonies. The convention first convened in May of 1787. Only two states were represented. In time, more delegates arrived_and the business of revising the Articles of Confederation started. It became apparent quickly that these articles were at best not enough and the m_sn became involved in designing a formof government to suit tJ:ien eeds of the times. The entire constitutionwas one great compromise. But it has worked for..ove-f200years . We owe a great debt to that handf ul of men who sat in an upstairs room in Philadelphia during the hot summer months in 1787. It isn't perfect, true, but those men gave us something we should cherish and revere.
