Although I think you should get points for rare candor on the subject, I nevertheless place you in category 4:
No opinion on whether it will work or will not work, but the Constitution we have is just fine so don't try the solution offered by the Constitution itself in Article V should be ignored in favor of redoubling our efforts and doing more of the same every election cycle because this time we will get different results.

Let’s all work together to get this going.
We owe it to The Founders and ourselves to attempt a rational Article V amendment process. Congress is not going to propose liberty amendments. If the Article V Convention of States doesn't work, or is hijacked, then fine, it's on to what we're all expecting anyway, revolution. It's your call America.
