Should the US keep it's constitution or scrap it for the UN Charter?
The US should keep its Constitution and allow as little sovereignty erosion to the UN as possible.
Should all nations submit to the rule of the UN?
Nope. A bunch of tin pot dictators and democracies sitting cheek by jowl is too unstable and poorly conceived to weild such power.
Does it make sense for some nations to have greater influence in the UN?
Well, duh. In any international setting, the nation with the most powerful armed forces will be listened to most attentively.
Should the EU have only a single vote in the UN?
I think the EU should be around a lot longer before the individual nations shed their sovereignty to this extent. Though it would serve them right. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Should the US just pull out of the UN all together? No, but we should pay a lot less dues.
