Yesterday was the 235th anniversary of the Constitution of the United States. It's one of the most influential documents in history and the world's oldest active codified constitution. Yet you would have never known, given the deafening silence on the social media accounts of our country's resident and vice resident.

I know how the Constitution can be amended and the con-con is not a good idea!
It is such a “not good idea” that it has never been tried!
Please explain to all of us just exactly how a con-con would “improve” the federal government or how life in the USA would be better after the LIEberals have their way with us at said con-con?
Yes, it is!
“Con-con” as in Constitutional Convention.
Well, there are a bunch of “old skulls full of mush” that need some education, too!
Why don’t you tell us what your “Article V COS” vision is, then?
Yeah, I know.
It's not that.
A few things congress would never propose:
Repeal 17th amendment
Term limits
Balanced budget
Open to something that would eliminate career bureaucrats and force congress to pass legislation and answer for it.
Yep, they still love their peaceful protest rallies- “There’s nothing like waking up in the morning with the smell of tear gas in your hair.”
