[edit] Constitutional legitimacy

I cannot understand what this page is meant to achieve. The first sentence is completely self-referential; the rest of the article gets nowhere. Ths question is good one, but is adequately covered in a myriad of better articles. This almost reads as the opening paragraph in a politics/philosophy essay that never got finished.

• Keep. This is a substantial topc in constitutional law and legal philosophy, as is evident from a glance at the Google results. The stub is poor, but not so much so that deletion is warranted. A redirect might also work, if a suitable target is found. Sandstein 16:55, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep - the current article reads like a possible promo for Barnett's book, but the topic is worthy. I would say that since the topic goes to the legitimacy of the foundation of a national law, it is very important and should be given plenty of time to grow. ENeville 22:51, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
• MergeWith the article about the book. This adds nothing to what is there.Edison 23:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, notable. Everyking 07:55, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and completely rewrite (leaving no byte unchanged) — the subject is very notable, the article as it stands is useless ➥the Epopt 02:00, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
