Harry Potter vs. the bedrock of our republic

By William M. Hartnett on Jul 24, 2007 in oddities

Should Americans be at all concerned that the Wikipedia entry for Harry Potter is longer than the Wikipedia entry for the United States Constitution? Mind you, the Harry Potter series does run quite a bit longer than the document that is the supreme law of the United States. Also, having read the Constitution carefully, I noticed rather few references to banking goblins, enslaved elves and magical little wizard fellas. Seven or eight, max.
