Geeez...we’re sunk. The Constitutional Convention is EXACLTY the remedy we need and it’s, oddly enough actually in the Constitution (Article 5). Please don’t tell me you believe the R’s are going to ride in on their white horses and “save the day!” Remember Medicare Part D...where exactly is the Article 1. Section 8. authority for that.
Bring on the Constitutional Convention and don’t reply about the mystical “runaway” convention. That’s what’s kept us from actually having one for nearly a generation.

I love to throw the dice in Las Vegas. Over the years I stand a little over even because of some lucky rolls - - - “Hard Ten on the Hop” has brought in hundreds to save some nights.
Black 8 on the roulette wheel has paid well.
But I will never bet on another Constitutional Convention. The odds of a payoff are low, and the odds on losing everything are too great. Moreover, because of today’s political climate and the lack of education among voters, I would consider a fix to be in - - with some guys with crooked noses ready to collect the spoils.
But, if you believe that a new Constitutional Convention would being about a better government, you may find comfort that Disneyland is still open, complete with Fantasyland.
