In support of this dubious proposition which is contradicted by the examples I gave you in my previous reply, you apparently cite the 17th amendment. The problem for you is that the 17th amendment has been followed to the letter.
The 13th amendment has been followed, the 17th amendment has been followed and many other amendments have been followed and have changed the course of American history. The amendments which I have reviewed in my previous reply are the kinds of process amendments which force "Congress and government agencies" to alter their behavior.
For the last time, resort to the 10th amendment is futile it is a dead letter. Forget it.
The example of the 17th amendment is that changing the document does not change behavior. Just so you understand that the reason for changing from state legislator’s appointing senators to popular election of senators was due to real and/or perecieved corruption. Now there is a movement for repealing the 17th amendment and going back to the state legislature appointment for the same reason.
Look enjoy your Article V dream. The chances of it happening are slim and the chances of two thirds of the states ratifying any amendments even slimmer.
