I have removed the following from Art. I:

Federal Floor - State Ceiling. --Doug.(talk • contribs) 22:33, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
I added sections on the suppression of the text of parts of the constitution. It seems particularly important to include the full, original text of the section in controversy because it is very hard to locate online, and it should be available to all. It took me a couple of hours to find the appropriate version of the document in Google Books where I could get the OCR'ed text and then proofread that text; most people would not know how to track it down. Without taking a position on why it was suppressed, it seems good if the underlying data is online for all to see.
Usually I would not quote at such length from a source document, but this seems like a place to allow it. If you disagree, please discuss it here before deleting it. Note that the Constitution suppresses only the state printing the text, not any third party (which probably would run afoul of the U.S. 1st Amendment). Kcrca (talk) 19:14, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
