A ConCon would be a fatal mistake. No matter how it started, it would be hijacked by union thugs and and socialists. At the end, we would have a “constitution” like that of the old USSR, complete with a “right to a job” and the “fair” distribution of wealth.

We have nothing to fear from a "hijacked convention". Whatever comes out of the convention must still be ratified by the states.

Bring on ConCon!

[Travis McGee]

Ratified by the states, in very hazily-defined state ratifying conventions, which could be ginned up over night by the same MoveOn crowd that ginned up the Con Con in the first place.

Sure, half of the country wouldn't accept its validity, and there would be a Civil War.

Actually, that's the plot of my third novel.

Here is a long excerpt, giving a fictional take on the dire aftermath of a runaway ConCon.
