Excuse me but that is two thirds of the House and the Senate NOT a majority for the President has no say in whether the Constitution is amended or not. The rest is correct.

You’re exactly right. Amending the Constitution is intentionally difficult.

"Excuse me but that is two thirds of the House and the Senate NOT a majority..."

Thanks---it's been a while since I read the actual text. But that only amplifies the teaching of the Founding Fathers that any change to the Constitution had to comprise a VERY WIDE consensus across all of society, and not just a simple majority vote in a single election.
