I see the comparisions- they want a consensus on everything, which is fine. That makes details pretty impossible, which leaves you with just big, overarching generalizations.

Like establishment of a Republic.

No one speaks for the GA, so communication between movements on issues is almost impossible. Each camp is their own thing, guided by the Republic.

Like sovern States with their own rules and rights.

Sounds to me like the easiest thing to do is just study history and see how they did it orginally.

Genuine DEMOCRACY takes time...

A COUP D'ÉTAT is nice and quick... and usually catastrophic in its consequences, right?

I agree with your comparison with "pre-1776 America". The Patriots of OWS are the embodiment of the Spirit of '76!
