kennyung: Prayer is the Only Key

Tolexander: yes!

But United State of Nigeria(USN) anyway. Though i plan moving to US soon.

Tolexander: like i said, US stands on the constitution and not articles of confederation. As the articles of confederation brings about loose states and didn't empower the congress to task the states for fund for federal responsiblities, though the national responsiblities appeared on the articles. Hence, the articles of confederation was discarded for the Constitution.

Virginia was the first to ratify the articles of confederation and Maryland, the last.
Delaware was the first to ratify the constition while Rhode Island was the last. Virginia was the 10th state to ratify the constitution even after the 9th state, New Hampshire had ratified. As provide by article vii stating that the constitution would become effective/binding if the constitution could be ratified by 9 states.
You can get some literature on history of US to confirm.

Tolexander: you are confusing the ratification of article of confederation with the constitution.

Delaware first ratified the constitution followed by Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Georgia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, South Carolina, New Hampshire, Virginia, New York, North Carolina and Rhode Island respectively.

The constitution is what US stands on and not the article of confederation.

barcanista: Why not ask the americans? Of what use is that to Nigeria Politics?

Tolexander: Maybe cos their tenures were before the ratification of the constitution by the required 9 states outta 13.

peleson: The 1st 7 presidents were the Presidents IN United States of America while after them came the Presidents OF United State of America

jeron1: If no be today, can't u change it?

prophetone: This myopic thinking is one of the major reasons we are finding it difficult to end the insurgency. Stereotyping is a lazy approach to solving any problem as the terrorists you seek to apprehend will outsmart you at every turn. Such reasoning is naive, predictable and mediocre beyond measure.

Carry go Abba.
