Because they don’t say that 13 states can veto any “runaway convention” crap...

Hell, the house/senate on capital hill can propose all sorts of CRAZY constitutional amendments and THEY ALREADY HAVE, MANY TIMES, but they are never ratified and become dead letters....

The JBS argument is so ignorant on WHAT Article V really means.

Article V only means that States can only PROPOSE new amendments, JUST LIKE THE HOUSE AND SENATE CAN....

Any and all RATIFICATION occurs LIEK IT ALWAYS HAS...

Damned fools! They are trying to convince us the states have no power and only the senate and house can propose new amendments...

It is like shooting your own foot because your shoes don’t fit....

JBS DOES address this.

Nothing graceful about you, Grace. Go take two chill pills and ring for the attendant.
