Aside from some small changes in the framing of certain parts of discussion (especially, in the 'objections' subsection), the conclusion, footnotes & blue-booking, everything is here. The conclusion is a delicate thing--and therefore needs a bit more attention (hence, its omission) which tries to contextualize the paper in terms of Jack Balkin's idea of "constitutional redemption", but there are no substantive arguments therein. Most everything of worth to the paper is included in this draft.--A.c.S
