Not sure of the premise of Levin’s book, but have been winning on issue after issue, but lost at the ballot box. We have a huge majority of statehouses and governors. Our ideas seem to get muddled in the blur of the national elections.
I often wonder why we’ve had no action on amendments in most of my lifetime. They have been a regular occurrence through most of our history. I get that many feel like we are opening a new can of worms if we give the left the idea of pursuing amendments, but I also wonder if it isn’t worth the risk.
Amendments only pass when there is a national consensus on an issue. We are divided on just about every issue, so no amendment.
Also we have been “reinterpreting” or just ignoring the Constitution when it suits us since 1930. So no real need to amend.
The last substantive amendment, IMO, was the 22nd in 1951. Since that merely formalized a long-standing tradition, the last “real” amendment was arguably the 19th in 1920.
If nothing else, it would bring sunshine to pressing and consequential issues.
BO and his minions will always push big government.
Conservations are for less government and grass roots activity.
Still, we don't have the unions and goons; there will always be fraudulent elections, but I need to get guidelines of how we might be able to turn it around. Mark supplies the guidelines; I trust him to steer us in the correct direction. The rest is up to us.
If not in my lifetime, I want to be involved in helping America regain its glory; for Emily, Eva, Riley, James and Danny (my nieces and nephews who deserve better than what is going on now) to bring America back.
In a way, you could say Obama and Big Government mirror George III and we are the colonies. IMHO.
THE LIBERTY AMENDMENTS by Mark Levin!!!
I think its like a companion piece to AMERITOPIA.
Ameritopia sets the current stage - The Liberty Amendments are the way out of this current stage.

The equal rights amendment came within a hair. It took another 30 years to get to the same place through legislation.
Perseverance and focus is the one thing we can learn from the commies.
