  We explain how the emergent phenomenon of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking
ensures that Poincar\'e covariant analyses of the three valence-quark
scattering problem in continuum quantum field theory yield a picture of the
nucleon as a Borromean bound-state, in which binding arises primarily through
the sum of two separate contributions. One involves aspects of the non-Abelian
character of Quantum Chromodynamics that are expressed in the strong running
coupling and generate tight, dynamical color-antitriplet quark-quark
correlations in the scalar-isoscalar and pseudovector-isotriplet channels. This
attraction is magnified by quark exchange associated with diquark breakup and
reformation, which is required in order to ensure that each valence-quark
participates in all diquark correlations to the complete extent allowed by its
quantum numbers. Combining these effects, we arrive at a properly
antisymmetrised Faddeev wave function for the nucleon and calculate, e.g. the
flavor-separated versions of the Dirac and Pauli form factors and the proton's
leading-twist parton distribution amplitude. We conclude that available data
and planned experiments are capable of validating the proposed picture.
