Hillary has already said, just the other day, she's not running in 2012

You mean like, when she was re-elected as a NY Senator in 2006, and she said she would serve out the full term?

If they try to go too far it will happen. Who knows what the maniac in the White House will try next.

2/3 of the state legislatures can call a con-con and wipe them out. Biden and Obama. It is in Article 5 of the Constitution.

What else will they wipe out at the convention? There are no Hamiltons or Madisons or Washingtons out there. Do you want the Constitution rewritten by the Barney Franks and the Nancy Peolosis and the Mitch McConnells and the John Boehners of the world?

It says 2/3. And it is in the hands of the state legislatures not the governors. This could stop the large communist states like California, New York, Washington and Oregon from having influence. It is there if we need it. And we might. The Framers put it in for just this situation.

It would be the state legislatures not the nitwits in DC. It is there as a last resort. The Constitution is really being ignored now anyway.

Sen. John Boehner is sworn in as Speaker of the House

Boehner is a Representative not a Senator.

Totally agree with you there, I’m sick to death with “hands off” approach that because he’s the first black president we can’t do what we are allowed to do with anyone else flagrantly violating our laws. Such wimpy people out there it makes you sick.

State legislatures can call the convention but where will the delegates come from? The likely solution will be to let the public elect their delegates. Who will run? Politicians. Anyone who doesn't think that a constitutional convention wouldn't be made up primarily of the very people that got us into this mess in the first place is fooling themselves.

Do a little research. You may find out. The constitution is being completely ignored at this point anyway.

Honestly, this situation is much bigger than Obama. It's his socialist agenda that must be defeated, and the same could be said for all the top democrats. If we focus on just Obama, the real issue and debate on socialism in America gets discarded as the left rallies around Obama and screams "racism" and that the republicans have no real issue other than they hate the president.

If the debate goes to Obama's agenda, we can discuss and control the topic, which is the complete and total failure of socialism at a societal level. All the while, we clamp down the purse strings and defund every piece of the damage he's done.

We control what law and budget gets out of congress now. Anything else is towards building the 2012 campaign platform.

Sure, let someone pursue his elibility, I'm not against that. The focus needs to be on why Obama is a failure, however. Not the simple fact that he is a complete failure -everyone knows that by now!

Right. A constitutional convention with an elite class that despises the constraints of the constitution would be insane. They would use the opportunity to wipe it out.
