Not a good idea. The Dems will rewrite the Constitution.

The Dem in the federal are all ready doing that anyway by bypass the Constitution

...Conversely the State's have a strong vested interested in taking back power from the federal and vesting it back in the individual States

Think about Massachusetts.. they have their own health care with the power to tax and rule inside their state on ever thing that goes with it

Is federal mandated health care in any way in Massachusetts (power) interested?

From the state's perceptive it a pure loss of power and tax revenue to the fed with no real up side to the state....

Think about it, Massachusetts has no upside in letting the fed take this over unless the think there going to get more money then there state put in...

But if that the case one States gain would be another States loss and the the losing State would fight to check the winner...

And a Fed win on power and tax money is all the State's loss...

So all the State's would fight to check the Fed power ...

Massachusetts on all places has a vested interested in leading a states right cause to get back 100% control of Health Care inside thier state(and the money and power that goes with it)…..

All Constitution changed are approved via the States and the States have no interested in giving power to the fed

The State’s self interested will always be in their own State's power…. The founder intended this

Self interested of the States will make in their interest to check federal power grabs

The dems will not rewrite the constitution, they don’t have the power in the countryside. They have the power in Washington but not enough at the state level.

The ratification process is nothing like an election process, Alaska is as powerful as California; New Hampshire is as powerful as New York. Ratifcation is a republican process and requires 38 states to amend the Constitution, or alternatively only 13 states to stop any crazy amendment.

It is the Conservatives together with the independents and Tea Party members that will rewrite in the sense of repeal.

First and foremost repeal the 16th Amendment because that is the amendment from which the Left derives its power. Repeal the 16th and socialism dies in the United States.
