>>The states, not the uniparty, have the controlling inputs to an Article V convention. Article V is one of the few remaining uncorrupted constitutional clauses.

It’s only uncorrupted because it has never been used in the progressive era. If we actually had a convention, it would be flooded with lobbyists, “experts”, academics, Chamber of Commerce types, and lawyers. No one would represent the working people, exactly as the Uniparty does.

The states will not send representatives with plenary power.

Only delegates will attend. These state delegates will have commissions which detail exactly with what they can vote for and how to vote. I know FL and IN have existing statutes that deal with their delegates to an amendments convention.

Yes, that is the danger of opening that box....

I think it’s time for all on FR and the Tea party to focus on one issue: Repealing the 17th Amendment.
