Nifty idea!  Without wanting to get political here, I think the Preamble to 
the US Constitution contains the essential user requirements:

" We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect 
Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the 
common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of 
Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this 
Constitution for the United States of America."
