Article V ping!
Bookmark for Monday. Grandkid birthday in the land of no internet, not about to try to drive the 300 mile round trip on the days of crazed drunks. Leaving now, coming home Monday.
Sorry it took me so many days to read this. As usual you have given even more relevant sustenance to our fight for an Article V Convention. The Roman Tribunal is indeed an excellent analogy to what the three-fifths veto power of the States could do for We The People.
Since I have found the cause of Article V, I find myself using “We The People” in my day to day conversation more often. Our youngest daughter, with whom I spent both holiday weekends has been politically savy since her pre-teen years. We enjoyed hot beverages and I expounded on Article V, reapealing the 16th and 17th Amendments, the goodness that would be a 3/5 veto power of the states, pros and cons of term limits, balanced budget, alternatives to the IRS, and many related issues that ensue from these topics. I guess my term of choice in supporting the issue is “We The People” instead of “I think.” After a bit, daughter would smile each time I said it. She says she’s glad I’ve grabbed hold of an issue again as I have been politically sidelined since I was injured. Her comments were all in agreement and she has called her Senator and Rep on our Texas Article V agenda. We had several VERY enjoyable discussions during my visit.
Now to catch up on your next post :)
