Everyone on FR that is not a fed plant (or China) should join the COS movement.

There is probably a lurker here right now.

“Everyone on FR that is not a fed plant (or China) should join the COS movement.”

I’m in.

Here’s my understanding. Going in, the convention of states is limited to certain topics. It’s not wide open. Those topics will be discussed and perhaps amendments will be proposed. Proposed amendments will be sent back to the states for ratification. At present, at least, states are more conservative than the Federal government. Besides, States should have a bias towards returning power to the states.

I don’t see run-away liberal amendments coming out of this. My only objection is that we may not have the run-away conservative amendments that I would favor. Even if all we get are term limits on Congressmen and Senators and some limitations to Federal powers, I would be happy.

Personally, I would like it if the FBI were clearly outranked by state and local law enforcement. But I don’t expect that to happen or even be discussed.
