You didn’t anwers this question:
“... if We the People won’t even VOTE them out of office (which takes no more effort than driving/walking to the polls and pulling a lever/pushing a button), then how can we be expected to get a constitutional convention organized?”
In most polls, more than 3/4 respond that term limits are favored. Most in America do not vote. What is the most common response? My vote does not count. Why? They are gonna get reelected anyways.
Most when given an effort to institute real change, take a much greater interest. It took the ERA a while to get its momentum. It will take time, but these bozo’s keep giving us the reason, to make the more concentrated effort. Like a waterfall it starts with a single drop of water.
