The fear of a runaway convention is due to the runaway nature of its advocates who try to convince us to support it by loading it like a Christmas tree. Its agenda should have no more than 3 articles that fit on 1 sheet of paper.

1) Limit the role of the Judicial branch.
2) Limit the role of the Executive branch.
3) Limit the role of the Legislative branch.

Any attempt to address birthright citizenship or abortion or audit-the-FED will open it a hundred other issues, both issues where we agree and issues where we disagree.

Doesnt matter what amendments come out, each has to be ratified by 38 states. The “Equal Rights for Women” or whatever they called it was passed out of Congress but was never ratified. Same with others. Even if you get a “runaway” convention, the ratification process is a brake on it.
