Nothing, as long as 'we the people' are limited by Article VI to honor our Constitution, as are ~all~ gov't officials.

I think the answer to your question is there. Are delegates to a Constitutional Convention Constitutionally recognized officers under Article VI Section 3? Are electoral college delegates? If so, are they sworn in under Article VI Section 3?

Ping to #67.

Aren't members of the Electoral College sworn in under Article VI, Section 3? I vaguely remember something like that. Would that also apply to delegates to an Article V Convention?

--- the Constitution is established by "We the People," so what's wrong with the People having a direct path to amending the Constitution?

Of course, - they would be sworn officials of their respective States; -- are you contending otherwise?

Yep, as state officials, electors would be sworn as per Art VI.

in any case, all of us are obligated to protect and defend our Law of the Land. -- You agree?
