“All delegates to the Con Con will not be conservaatives. This is a bad idea to the 10th power.”

The delegates would be representatives of their states, which is appropriate. The convention would still vote on what amendments they would send to the states, and three-fourths of the state legislatures would still need to ratify them.

Remember that the equal rights amendment never got through, even in the liberal 70’s and even after extending the ratification time.

If we cannot trust our own people to vote the right way then this is the last gasp before an actual revolution...

If we do not breathe we will certainly succumb to tyranny by drowning in it...
