I certainly don’t want to forget you! God bless you, please ask to be part of this once-a-day-at-most ping.

This bold plan is simple: 3/4 of the states call for a mega-hearing empowered to CLEAN THINGS UP with enumerated investigations. And then let’s see what congress critters hide behind congressional rules.

Simple question: who do you trust more? A simple majority of congress or 3/4 of the states?

And Happy Veterans Day!

I have a better idea. Back in the Eighties, an idea that popped up was called the "Utah Option". As to what it has to do with Utah, I never figured out. According to the Utah Option, the Constitution would be amended as follows:

• If the legislatures of three-fourths of the states vote a No-Confidence Resolution, the current federal government is dissolved.
• Elections for Congress, President and Vice President would be called in 30 days. This would include all of the Senate no matter which "class" a senator belonged it.
• No sitting congressman, senator, president or vice president would be eligible to serve in the new government.
• Upon the new government being seated, all federal judges would be fired. The new president would appoint the new judges with the advice and consent of the new Senate.
• All bureaucrats and civil servants would be fired, and the new government would fill their slots as desired.

I think this idea would have more power than what you are suggesting.
