J.B. to France Review
The Charter is a truth is a truth that
means nothing, or else something worse.
Now for a truth that means something.
The Sovereignty of the people is in the people.
Is that a truth? This means something. And
it means but one thing. No ambiguity – no
quibble, here. Is this a truth? then let this
honest this truth, be substituted to
the dishonest – the creative one.
The Sovereignty (then let him say – the Sovereignty
is in the people. What? is this too much for him
to say? to say to his creators? to them by
whom and by whom alone, if much, he
will have been made? Why – even here –
even in this sink of corruped corruption –
of disguised despotism so ill-disguised by corruption.
The sovereignty of the people is in public dinners a standing
to all – It comes before The King, and no
servant of the King's dares prosecute for it.
