Congress only "authorized use of force". Not an official declaration of war-- more like the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution that started the whole mess in Vietnam.
"This will not be another Vietnam. We have learned the lesson of Vietnam: to stay the hell out of Vietnam!" -- Dana Carvey (as George Bush)
We had 100 citizens at the time i made this post. How often does 50% of a group this large and this diverse (let alone 67%) agree on anything? Almost never, the most satirized example being the US Senate.
My suggestion would be instead to have a simple majority cabinet vote on whether or not to moblize. The cabinet (minus the historian) will be more intimately familiar with what's going on in the game and how mobilization would affect the nation. In the United States, it's the president who decides mobilization with input from the National Security Council, and that seems efficient enough to me.
However, this is a democratic empire and as a result, what the people decide will be the procedure... which is looking to be a 2/3 majority.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." -- Theodore Roosevelt
