The second amendment puts circuit court clerks under the rules and budget of the judiciary, which is where they belong for efficiency and uniformity. The question on the ballot asks voters if they want a convention called to rewrite the state's constitution. The last such convention failed, teaching the lesson that reform of the document is better done piecemeal by the voters.

ONTARIO, Calif. -- For entertainment and suspense, it's hard to beat one of Bill Clinton's unscripted meetings with voters.Danger lurks in every question, every answer.

That coincidence of the calendar is not the only similarity in their military service, the father says. Lyndon Wilson remembers stacking sandbags in unarmored military vehicles three decades ago to better protect against enemy gunfire or land mines. His son bluntly asked Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld this week why some troops now are using scrap metal to fashion "hillbilly armor" for their trucks.
