i do not want a Constitutional Convention.

We have spent 30 years trying to deal with RINOs across the nation implementing all sorts of whacked out stuff.

I think you are kidding yourself if you think nothing bad crafted could possible be implemented.

Look at the grief Trump is getting from Republicans for some of his plans.

Honestly, I DO NOT trust the Republicans either.

Am I glad our state houses are lop-sidedly Republican? Sure. Does that convince me Conservatism would prevail? No.

I can’t count the number of times I’ve seen a Republican say, “reasoned gun control”.

So no, I don’t want to open things up for review.

You prefer status quo then? Or open civil war?

No one is proposing a Constitutional Convention.

What is being called is a Convention for proposing Amendments

What is be proposed is a convention of the states to propose a select list of propose amendments. The delegates would be limited by law to vote on those specific amendments.

All of the states proposing the Convention of the States would agree to that slate before ever agreeing to the convention.
