In response to very nice things happening on FaceBook's Cloud to street
page:

I posted:

I Like what I'm reading here, Then for the life of me, I can't figure out
how one could crowed source with the outcome being a legitimate set of final
candidate constitutional drafts, without the more formal aspects of Social
Decision/Choice Theory to there significance... ... It would seem such
results, would need to be hardened from those wishing to exert undue
influence over the constitution drafting process... It is precisely for this
reason that Social Choice Function Problem can be see in some ways as a
problem in Game Theory... Now how one resolves these kind of challenges in
the human decision making process without first realizing how very
significant this can become...is any bodies guess?
