/We have NO leadership, we have no virtue, we have very little in the way of conservative activists which will be allowed to participate as delegates to that Constitutional Convention...

It will be populated by the usual suspects of moderate and RINO’s we have in the ranks right now...

I would rahter not have a convention, than allow these types of people to try and battle the liberal/Febian socialists which will be utilized as delegates from the political opposition...

It is a very dangerous combination, in my opinion...

To say the liberals are not interested in this process does not mean they cannot mobilize very quickly if need be...

But the bottom line is this...We have battles we need to win right now outside of this concept, and until those are resolved, this idea needs to be resisted at all costs...

We have bigger fish to fry right now...

Again, this is just the way I see it...It can and will be used against us, and until we get better “conservative and virtuous” leadership to effectively fight for originalist intent of our Constitution, I would rather not convene one to address these extraneous liberal ideas/agenda...

So I can count you on the list of those who want to “deviate” from the Constitution. The states have applied. The Constitution mandates a convention which means Congress must obey the Constitution and call the convention. You, because you fear the liberals, justify not obeying it on this basis. Your reason doesn’t matter. You want to give the government the authority to “deviate” from the Constitution. I use the word “deviate” deliberately. This was the word used by a government to ignore its Constitution in the legislation that let it do so. I’m there are other examples. But this one cost us: 1933, German Constitution.

You wish for no convention, the government to have the right to “deviate” from the Constitution. Are you really gut sure you want the government to do that?
