Sorry, you’re right. It would take 2/3rds vote of both Houses of Congress to propose such a repeal (meaning 67 Senators), ‘and ratified by three-fourths of the states or by three-fourths of conventions thereof, the method of ratification being determined by Congress at the time of proposal.’

Now are we talking about the 17th - direct election of Senators or the 16th - the federal income tax amendment?

Take no prisoners! Show them no quarter! Pressure these LIB morons with emails, letters, personal visits and phone calls until they hide whimpering in their closets, wetting them selves. I don’t care if I am seen as “mean spirited” or “insensitive”. America and Freedom are worth my reputation being “tarnished”. F’em!

Bruce,
We're talking about the 17th. I'm certain it was central to the gravitation of power to the Federal Government.

aruanan,

"...sink [sic..."
