France and Holland rejected the European Constitution. But remember, they can reject it a hundred times. They only have to accept it once.
One of the many tricks used to get through the fourteenth amendment, barely, was accepting California’s ratifying it and rejecting their rejection of it. California accepted the fourteenth amendment and then, before it became law, turned around and rejected it. The Federal Administration said that once a state ratified an amendment, it could not reverse its action. Otherwise, the fourteenth amendment would not have been ratified, despite the fact the fact that Republicans owned ten Southern states at the time.
In other words, European unionists just have to try and try again. Once a country signs on, it can’t get out, as in the case of our Federal Union.
