My concern is that Trumpmania will overwhelm the nascent Article V movement.

The troubles of our republic are beyond the cure of any election.

I have the same concerns. The election is thee news story though Abbot, Levin and others and voicing more about Article V. I think it's just keep educating, informing people, 'spreading the word' as it were. I think everyone will hear about it eventually. There's so much misinformation out there. . Just like most topics.

I hope President Trump supports it. I don’t think he can do that now—it would make the GOPe heads explode. He seems to understand the complete and total corruption of our political system due to career politicians’ need for money to get re-elected. He talks about them being “puppets” and being “owned”. He blasted Cruz for his financial subservience to Goldman. He excoriates Super Pacs and their corrupting influence.

As many of us realize, the only antidote is term limits—and the only way to impose term limits on Washington is through an Article V. process. I too hope the Trump phenomenon ultimately supports a Convention of States. Getting control of the executive branch while reforming the Congress would save our Republic for generations.
