Lovely. Democrats participating in a convention to cement their socialist utopia.
“An America more like Venezuela! Article V now!”

An Amendments Convention will represent the country as it exists at that time via the appointment of delegates by state legislatures. The legislatures of conservative states will appoint delegates who will do their best to formulate amendments to limit federal power and restore the concept of federalism. The legislatures of liberal states will appoint delegates who will do their best to prevent the convention from proposing such amendments. This is how a republic works.
Freezing liberals and Democrats out of an Amendments Convention would be a futile exercise. What is good about an Amendments Convention is that everybody will have to put his cards on the table and make his case.
