And there lies the problem. Electing Republicans will only change who's running this super sized, intrusive and destructively expensive government. Republicans, when in charge, love big government just as much as democrats. Neither party will ever correct this problem and return us to the limited government as intended by the founders. Republicans will only delay the onset of more communism until the next democrat/communist/socialist administration.

An article V convention is the only peaceful solution other than secession and forming a new Republic.

An article V convention IS secession and forming a new Republic. No amount of safegaurds can possibly prevent this. Regardless of charters and promises conventioneers will have absolute authority to completely rewrite the Constitution. Do you honestly believe Marxists will not be in charge of this process?

Invoking Article V is extremely dangerous for the cause of liberty. I wouldn’t trust that progressives would be prevented from taking over a Constitutional Convention.
