I agree. We can’t take the chance of a constitutional amendment or writing a new constitution. The one we have now is perfect. We just need to enforce it. Nowhere does it call for an income tax, or the federal reserve, or any of the many alphabet agencies that suck the life out the people and the economy.
We need a president and a Congress that will roll up their sleeves and fire 1/3 rd of the federal government and call it a good start. Then, they need to get to work and decide what the government should and shouldn’t do. (Hint, defense and a few interstate regulations. Cancel all else.)
The fact is we don’t even know the mod of ratification the convention will adopt to approve their doings, which could in fact be a mere majority vote by our existing Senate members. I say this because the Delegates sent to the convention in 1787 ignored the Articles of Confederation, which were then in effect, and by its very wording was forbidden to be altered but by a unanimous consent of the States. Instead of following the Articles of Confederation, they arbitrarily decided that the new constitution and new government they created would become effective if a mere nine States ratified what they did.
SEE: Articles of Confederation
XIII.
Every State shall abide by the determination of the United States in Congress assembled, on all questions which by this confederation are submitted to them. And the Articles of this Confederation shall be inviolably observed by every State, and the Union shall be perpetual; nor shall any alteration at any time hereafter be made in any of them; unless such alteration be agreed to in a Congress of the United States, and be afterwards confirmed by the legislatures of every State.

Correct, and that can only be done if the states return to the senate.
It is why the Framers gave us a senate of the states in the first place.
