A constitutional convention is the most dangerous route to take. Anything can happen there.
<<

Nothing can be finally passed into law until sufficient states ratify it. And with the large number of states passing various laws to refute ObamaCare, this demonstrates their temperament as to any Convention. Let me point out once again that the number of states that have weighed against ObamaCare is almost as many as are required to call for a Convention.

ObamaCare is ALREADY law unless struck down by the Supreme Court or rendered moot by being defunded by the House. ObamaCare DOES NOW destroy the enumerated powers for it is certain that once government gets comfortable ordering you to buy this insurance, it is only a matter of time before they order you to buy something else. And as the IJ amicus brief states, by logic, that police power will eventually extend to ordering wages and employment. In short ObamaCare is the direct road to SOCIALISM. In my mind this is a far greater threat than a Convention passing some provision that could not survive ratification by sufficient states.

I get it about the number of states that have to agree.
My point is that it will be pretty hard to keep the convention to a particular agenda and those who wish to destroy us will be out in force.
They will never have a better opportunity to ‘re-make’ America as they wish.

Those who assume ‘We’ have more guns are correct on the surface but don’t forget that a situation like a constitutional convention is very rare.
All the bad actors will mobilize their armies of minions to press and accomplish the anti-America goals.

Can we prevail? yes ... but we better be ready (with good intelligence and planning) with the willingness to go all the way because we will be all in and no mistake.
