Not a bad idea at all, provided we avoid Texas's mistake. If we get two senators for each of Scotland, Norn Iron, Wales and England, plus our fair share of congressthings, we end up with the biggest voting block in the US legislature and for the presidency, with a political spectrum whose extreme right can't poke the extreme left of the current US one with a long, long stick. One sudden lurch to the left by the US political establishment later, we own the place. Byzantium, anyone? Andrew D.
