But, something like a Constitutional Convention would bring out the leftwing like you’ve never seen. You don’t think they would realize all the potential crap they could pull with something like this? Yes, it would take 3/4’s of the states to ratify - but, that’s just not enough protection in my opinion.

The other side of this is that a Constitutional Convention would bring out the Tea Party like you haven't seen since the ObamaCare townhalls. I suspect we would swamp the left at such a convention. The problem is that I can't imagine what we could add to the existing Constitution beyond "and we really mean that . . . and we really mean that too" that would help.

Have you read any of the proposals? They are all very practical.
