organization of k-12 public education and academia in colleges that apparently “radicalized” America’s youth
with Howard Zinn text books
Is more like it.
People who threaten to break the democratic fabric of the nation, need to be stopped, and more importantly, need to be told that nobody is above the constitution,” it adds.
,1. Article V COS
IS
the constitution
so how can it be above the Constitution freaks , commies and morons ?
2. We are a Republic, not a democracy.
” MUH Democracy” ideology must be broken.
Mob ocracy is why we aren’t a MOBocracy.
These people pushing that sedition are reprobates.
It’s not the original Constitution. There have been 27 Amendments added to the Constitution. The first 10 was the Bill of Rights. Other than that Congress has given itself more power most of the time. It is about time the states take back some of that power through Article V , the Convention of States.
Leery of COS due to runaway convention and the left making things worse!
Hence, given that the observable character of the people now in the political class is somewhere between rotten and despicable, I am not a fan of a COS. The aspirations to power these clowns routinely exhibit give me no hope they would truly rein in the Federal leviathan.
I forced myself to read Howard Zinn’s US history book 15yrs ago. My first thought was “Omg, they’re teaching this crap?”
Article V has never been used because both sides are too afraid the other will get the Lion’s share. They tried to get an Article V Convention to prevent the Civil War but it was too little too late . After a big bloody Democrat-Republican War the Constitution got amended by violence instead. We could skip the upcoming Second Democrat-Republican War by using Article V this time around or eventually get a radioactive wasteland version of America instead.
Because the Left doesn’t do anything like that in our public schools. You know, indoctrinate kids with leftist ideology and engage in activism disguised as “field trips.” Nooo… 🙄
Since anything proposed by the COS would require ratification by three fourths of the states believing anything useful would come from a COS is very wishful thinking. Nothing desired by conservatives would get any blue state votes for ratification.
COS is an idea pursued by democrats and rinos. “Trust but Verify” as President Reagan said.
almost nothing produced in the last decade by any major studio has been anything but rank, woke, leftist propaganda ...
Rinos like Mark Levin and Anthony Scalia?
Yes - at this time the chance of losing existing rights seems much higher than the chance of gaining new ones.
We have a runaway President, and I love it.
COS is an idea pursued by democrats and rinos.

Utter bullshit.
The founding fathers were neither of those.
I suggest you take the free online Hillsdale college course on the US CONSTITUTION.
It’s the last pull in case of tyrant subversion emergency lever
And the only reason it’s NOT pulled are Democrats and rinos.
The aspirations to power these clowns routinely exhibit give me no hope they would truly rein in the Federal leviathan.

I understand the cynicism, but a CoS might be a good way to threaten elected officials to DO something before a balanced budget amendment is shoved down their throat. And that seems like the ONLY item that CoS is really intent on doing.
I’d hoped that DOGE would’ve ended up reducing the federal gov’t by a minimum of 25%. Wishful thinking on my part.
And what we got was a 14th Amendment that made hash of the Bill of Rights.
It ended slavery but opened up a new can of worms. People should be able to hire or fire who they want , reasonable or not. That is the point of private property. As an example, you have gays hunting for someone who won't bake their cakes so that they can force their acceptance upon people who rather have nothing to do with them
