Here's one of the better comments:
Voting for conservatives is necessary but insufficient. As per Woodrow Wilson's dream, the vast majority of government is out of the hands of our elected reps and senators. One hundred years of experience under popularly elected senators has proved the inadequacy of elections. When it comes to conservatives focus on national elections, I'm reminded of Einstein's definition of insanity. As in banana republics, elections here are becoming the Left’s tool to legitimize tyranny. “Obama won, get over it.”
Obama is consolidating all powers. He makes laws, executes laws and increasingly can adjudicate law through administrative courts or his corrupt DOJ. In 2012, every administrative agency was, or potentially was, of service to his campaign. It is way past the time to return un-enumerated powers to where they belong, to the states.
Levin's amendments are superb. They would make the government much more federal than our framers design.
Until the national/state division power is once again secured by a senate of the states, there is no hope.
They would abide by those amendments like they abide by the Constitution we have now
Article V as “ejection seat” for when we are in real trouble.
The Framers would be shocked that we hadn't used Article V.
Over a hundred state legislators from thirty-three states met and Mount Vernon. The next meeting will be this June 12-13 at the Indiana statehouse.
Address the tsunami of debt, for it is the one issue that could carry thirty-eight states. Once the nation sees what the process can accomplish, press for other amendments.
As the Framers intended, the states will run the process/convention. (Big middle finger to the DC denizens)
Conventions of the states were common before the 1787 federal convention.
Article V was intended to keep the reins on the DC government. (So was a senate of the states)
Glenn spent the last 1 1/2 minutes thank Mark Levin for his research. (Very good)
If 38 states vote to abuse our rights, like repeal the 2A, well, heck the game is officially over, America isn't capable of self-government.
There is little time, because every day the condition of our republic worsens.
Read Mark's book. It is time to act.
