No offense but I find that argument a tad disingenuous.

Article V activists propose to reset the Constitution, not tweak it a little, but overhaul the entire thing and give us a new constitution by the will of the people.

Well, I don’t trust the people. I don’t trust them to understand the Bill of Rights, much less vote on keeping it. The people don’t know from shinola about federalism or the US Constitution.

Those who say they are going to fix, amend, restore, reset the document and bring it into line with the will of the people — I don’t trust them.

The people are the problem. Not Obama, not the Constitution, not the ballot machines. The people. A century of indoctrination in schools and from the media, has diminished the people to a mindless horde of knaves and fools, moochers and cowards.

Bingo. What makes anybody think that they won’t ignore new wording in a Constitution, when they ignore the old wording in a Constitution with impunity?

And throwing this open to change everything is downright suicidal. And nobody has been able to prove to me this couldn’t possibly happen.

A few generations of leftist indoctrination in the public schools and academia has left most of the nation as mindless sheeple, really incapable of governing themselves anymore. That’s why they elected somebody like Obama. Twice.
