I don't think you'd accomplish anything by calling a "constitutional convention," and if anything were to come as a result of any convention, I think it'd end up doing more harm than good. Recall that there are no limits as to the amendments which can be made by this type of convention, so unless you control the entire process, we're just as likely to end up with Constitutionally-mandated nationalized healthcare. Ick!

I'd be more happy to see individual states begin to tackle illegal immigration, such as Georgia has. FOR STARTERS, HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS: START TAXING INTERNATIONAL MONEY TRANSFERS.

Once the source of "free" money dries up, they'll all go home on their own. (I hope.)

I think most of the states are currently "red" states (maybe someone will post "the map?"). Now might be the least risky time to attempt something like this.

I live in GA and I think it's a start. But won't Congress be pre-empting states rights with the garbage that's going to get through now?
