reiterating the feds have no power in these issues and they are reserved for the states

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.

OK, well those things are definitely changes to the Constitution and giving the states the right to basically nullify unconstitutional federal action. On the face, I like it. Gotta be careful how they're written - gotta be very plain and clear.

Most of what I've seen discussed on FR has been about "social issue" amendments which Reagan favored dealing with things like abortion and gay "marriage."
