Iraq's Wish-list for a new constitution

Aired on C-Span last night, the Iraqi legislator Usama al-Nujayfi urged his country to come up with a new constitution.  He enumerated a wish-list--much as is used by realtors in searching for a house for their clients--of what he wants in the newly envisioned document.

Surprising to me, his wish-list contained the salient features of the current constitution of the Russian Federation!

If everything could be worked out, I should like to be on its design team!  JLO
