Completely agree with your concerns and caution.
I have little doubt that corrupt democrats will seize the opportunity to co-opt the convention process.
Nor would I put it past them to initiate an emergency of some sort to ensure they achieve their goal of ever more power.
Democrats, Rinos, Gov’t employees, Mainstream Media, Unions, Educators and complicit big business will will be sure to sabotage any effort to rein in their power and influence.
The only approach to save this country, would be to change all citizen’s values, beliefs and interests to that which is most constructive to preserve our republic, supporting only moral, selfless candidates who are worth of our vote.
We have become immoral, partially because we have willingly lost our moral compass when we rejected Christainity’s best practices.
Our constitution nor form of government is not to blame for our current decline, and abuses of power.
Apathy and acceptance of corrupt politicians is our undoing.
As our history shows, reliance on the virtue of those we send to DC is a sure path to tyranny.
The Framers relied on the structure of government, especially the division of power, to secure our rights.
There is nothing to lose, and everything to gain from a process that doesn’t involve our masters in DC.
