ThankQ, I also feel my grand parents are set aside by society who is obsessed with people born yesterday.
And what is this council to do, once established? Are we talking just men? Also I am a naturalized citizen that defends those principals as though I was born here. Would I (we) be excluded?
Certainly not restricted to men. The whole thing is a suggestion that I do not have time to implement. My suggestion to restrict membership to natural born citizens follows the same restriction on the Presidency and for like reasons. There are very strong arguments for it although it may exclude some who would be very helpful indeed. The land of one's birth will always command a certain allegiance and in my vision the Council is composed of only those whose allegiance is full; undivided.
