Most of the proposals are structural changes that return more power to the states, in keeping with the defined scope of the convention.

OK, well that sounds like the second approach I mentioned - reiterating the feds have no power in these issues and they are reserved for the states (which would be a reiteration of the basic assumptions of the Constitution confirmed by the 10th Amendment). If this were to happen, it would be nice, I guess, to reassert the presumptions of the 10th Amendment so these Fabian Progressive Socialist tyrants don't assume a presumption in favor of the government.

No, more structural than that - such as term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court; a state-level veto of federal laws, regulations and court decisions; limits on taxation as well as spending. You should check out Mark Levin's book.
