please explain:

It's quite simple. The Registrant's community I envision is for
registrants of domain names. If you don't have any domains under your
registration, you are ineligible to join. Is that clear enough? Just as if
you're not a business, you cannot join the Business Constituency of the
GNSO. The Registrant's Constituency will be an inclusive group for domain
registrants. If you feel you need to be part of a constituency without a
domain name interest, you are free to go ahead and look to set up your own
constituency for "netizens". Last time I checked, the USA was a free
country, no?
