just a mental exercise that won’t go anywhere since both major parties benefit from out of control massive govt spending

the republicans won’t change anything

the judiciary will not stop unConstitutional laws

the police state continues to grow under fascists

yea... this’ll end well

I agree with, and am thinking about suing due to the theft of intellectual property, that point of view. :{) We lost the war decades ago. The Constitution provides liberty (or used to when they followed it), our culture provides morality. We won’t recover liberty until food becomes currency, if then.

Glenn Beck has been saying much the same for the past couple of years. It's the culture. That's why he's been studying Walt Disney and how he was so successful back in the 60's, unlike the drivel that Disney produces nowadays.

Glenn needed a platform under his personal control to begin producing the entertainment that he believes promotes a countering value system.

There are people out there attempting to change the status quo.

For that I am grateful.

1. Pray for revival and reformation, and work toward evangelizing and discipleship. Without an educated Christian worldview and morality, our Republic is impossible. And I agree, we need to take back the pillars of our society. No one person can do everything but if every conservative does our part we can all accomplish something together. I really feel if we do not have a revival and reformation , the cultural and moral descent are unstoppable and the rest doesn’t matter.
2. Wherever it is in your power, educate the youth you come in contact with. Even if only your own kids.
3. Work at what you can at politics at a local level to get Constitutionalists elected
4.Support an Article V convention to propose Amendments that would downsize the Federal beast.

I think these things are required to be done for even a hope of restoring our country. We have no choice. Our alternatives are a total dictatorship or economic collapse and anarchy.

It is time to stop thinking in terms of political parties.

Stop thinking that reform and a return to constitutional republicanism will emerge from the people who profit so very well from the system they hijacked.

The tough road ahead means we have to actually DO SOMETHING other than b!tch and moan at FR and plead like serfs with our rat and rino reps and senators.

The answer per Mark Levin and our Framers is within the gift of Article V. History will not look kindly on a people who gaffed off a peaceful means to reclaim their liberties.

You and I and all of us must lean on our state reps and senators to assert the power the framers gave them, to reassert vertical separation of powers and quite possibly, our very lives.

“Conservatives stink at politics because we stink at culture.”

Conservatives have not focused on growing conservatism.

Instead they have welcomes entertainment, forums, etc. where they talk comfortably among themselves.

I believe Levin's Book contains some worthy ideas, and hope it will inspire us to come up with many, many more.

How practical an idea is amending the Constitution from the states up?

I've got my doubts, but a.) it's worth a try, and b.) the sooner we start thinking about a strengthened Constitution, the better prepared we'll be when the time arrives to reassert our lost Constitution and start rebuilding our lost constitutional republic. I'd guess that will happen sooner than we can amend the Constitution from the ground up.
