The Constitution's Article V indicates that amendments to the Constitution actually have to be ratified by 3/4 of the states.

For someone who sets themselves up as some sort of expert on the Constitution, your knowledge is sorely lacking.

There is another path to amending the Constitution where both houses of Congress have to approve an amendment by 2/3's majority.

I think I'll take Senator Cruz's knowledge and understanding of the constitution over yours.

Stuff your disappointment.

There is another path to amending the Constitution where both houses of Congress have to approve an amendment by 2/3's majority.

And after that vote, THEN it is sent to the states for ratification.

[Amendment10]

"There is another path to amending the Constitution where both houses of Congress have to approve an amendment by 2/3's majority."

With all due respect SoConPubbie, if I understand you correctly that's not another path. Congress has no constitutional authority to ratify proposed amendments to the Constitution.

Regarding the 2/3 majority indicated in the Constitution's Article V, please consider the following. When one or more members of Congress want to propose a new amendment to the Constitution to the states, they must first win at least 2/3 support of both Houses for the proposed amendment before Congress can actually propose the amendment to the states. And if at least 2/3 of both Houses support the proposed amendment then Congress can present the proposed amendment to the states and the states can choose to either ratify the proposed amendment or ignore it.
