You do not need to win Congress or the Presidency.
The Constitution gives us the right to hold State Conventions and force Congress to do our bidding.
This is a process of education. Once a person ‘gets it’ on the FairTax, there is no turning them back.
That is why I say to read the link above and to STUDY, STUDY, STUDY and ASK QUESTIONS.
This is not a game anymore. You are asked to study and become informed. You need to make a committment.
About 90% of the document is correct. The 10% that is wrong comes from making unwarranted assumptions based on how the Constitutional Convention of 1787 was called and how it operated. These assumptions are wrong because the original Convention was conducted under the rules of the Articles of Confederation, not the Constitution. The author also failed to read the American Bar Association's seminal 1973 document exploring how such a convention would work, how its members would be chosen, and how its purview would be limited by the state legislatures. Still, 90% isn't bad, and it's a good document to work from.
Quite correct.
However, do you have any reason to believe that a movement unable to win a super-majority in Congress can somehow get a majority vote from 3/4 of the state legislatures? That means 13 of the 99 houses can block the measure.
An amendment is MUCH, MUCH harder than an election, yet people keep proposing an amendment as a fallback position when they can't win the elections.
It's like saying I can't run a mile without being forced to stop, so instead I'll run a marathon.
