Who says any politicians have to be involved? Why can't we just vote some normal everyday citizens to represent us? (Isn't that the way the Founders planned it?)

You said — “I do not trust any modern day politian to re-write my Constitution!”

They can’t simply re-write the Constitution. They must propose amendments that 3/4 of the states must ratify, before anything can take effect. It’s the same standard for ratification for the Congress proposing a Constitutional Amendment.
