Maybe its time to start thinking about a Constitutional convention as a way to rein in the Federal Government. The Supreme Court has rewritten much of the Constitution expanding the powers of the Federal government far beyond anything that is rational.

I'm really surprised the justice department is taking the approach that it has taken. This would be the perfect opportunity to lobby for Wickard to be limited.

If there was support for a new constitutional convention to rein in the federal government, then there'd be support for reining in the federal government with the existing Constitution. A constitutional convention today would more than likely do the opposite of reining it in.
