First Amendment
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition their Government for a redress of grievances.
No where is there anything about separation of church and state like the communists keep saying there is. And if the people want to display and exercise their religious expression in public the government has NO RIGHT under the law to prevent it.The first Amendment just prohibits a national state church like the Church of England it then goes on to say the government isn’t allowed to interfere with religious expression.How a federal judge can get no religion in public,on public land or in public schools can only come out of his desires and ideology not through a plain reading of the amendment.It’s time we the people start showing them what these plainly written amendments say!

Yes, the whole idea of “freedom from religion” is a modern conceit.

Many of the egregrious violations of the constitution have been at the hands of the gramscian Marxists using the federal court oligarchy to rule via proclamation rather than legislation.

Let's turn the tables on the federal oligarchy and return power to the STATES where it rightly belongs!

The Convention of states will bring up amendments to be able to:
1) RECALL Federal and Supreme court justices via STATE legislatures
2)Set TERM LIMITS on Federal and Supreme court justices.
3) Impeach and remove Federal and Supreme Court justices (I think that might already be possible, but if not it is definitely another option the state convention could vote on.)

And note, this is NOT a constitutional convention to rewrite the constitution. It is a convention OF the states BY the states, to amend the constition to bring power BACK TO THE STATES! (Any amendment proposed must be ratified by 3/4 of state legislatures and there is no way states would vote to add any amendment that would give increased power to Federal government.)It can be used to add an amendment which nullifies a previous amendment! (17th amendment for example)

Forbes.com: "Big Political Story of 2016 Will not be Obama" What could be bigger news than a presidential race? According to Ralph Benko, journalist and contributor to Forbes.com, a Convention of States is going to be the top story in two years' time. In his article, Benko describes the Mt. Vernon Assembly and its importance to the history of the United States. He mentions the Convention of States Project as one of the primary leaders in the Article V movement, and praises the state legislators who kicked-started the process in Mt. Vernon. He concludes:

“The big political news of 2016 will not be about the presidential race. It will be about how nearly 100 citizen-legislators began a process that restored liberty to America. The big story is bigger than presidential politics.

The big story is Constitutional. It is a story about how liberty-minded Americans such as Sen. David Long, of Indiana, Rep. Chris Kopenga, of Wisconsin, Rep. Matt Huffman, of Ohio, Rep. Gary Banz, of Oklahoma, Sen. Caryn Tyson, of Kansas, Rep. Yvette Herrell, of New Mexico, and Sen. Kevin Lundberg, of Colorado (co-chairs of a coordinate Article V Caucus), and other state legislators such as Del. Jim LeMunyon, of Virginia, began the process of restoring liberty to our sweet land.” See link for rest of article.
