To: Art in Idaho; Repeal The 17th

Please keep posting your links. It was Ulysses At The Mast, pinged to me by RepealThe17th a couple years ago that forced me to rethink an Article V state convention to propose amendments.

To: Jacquerie
I will continue to post them, even if redundant for a lot of FReepers. New people see them and let me know, so will keep posting. Thanks for the feedback. Have been posting about every other thread, but will keep them going. They certainly aren't all inclusive, but they're a good introduction to Article V.

As mentioned in my link intro, I am more and more convinced, (as stated by Grace G), that it's :

1. Elect More Republicans - This has Failed due to RINO/Uni-party confluence.

2. Article V Convention of States to propose Amendments - Needed to try to take power from the federal government back to the states and reel in the the federal leviathan.

3. State Nullification - Last ditch effort to try to take power back from the federal monster, though by this point it may be too late...

4. State Secession - Could either end up peaceably like the breakup of the Czechoslovakia in 1993 or a brutal:

5. Civil War II like the first one.... The longer we wait on #2, the more likely #3, then #4 and finally #5. .

Thank you Jacquerie for all the work you have done.
