Uh, the constitution specifically tells congress what it must do to amend it. If they had the power to define conditions, then they would NOT need a constitutional amendment. That’s weak.

Why bring the Constitution into it? It is Fred’s duplicitous policy which were pointed out. Not the Constitution.
