I don’t think you ever want to have a Constitutional Convention. God knows what’s lurking in the sidelines.

STRICT PARAMETERS set before proceeding. Secure the ballot box. Otherwise NO GO.

I believe the fear of a Constitutional Convention, since the 1960s, has been the removal of the first two Amendments of the Bill of Rights.

If thee were an Article V convention that somehow managed to ratify limits on the power of the federal government; I don’t believe DC would handle such a thing with a shred dignity. There’s a parody of the kid’s cartoon “Caillou” on Youtube called “Caillou the Grownup”, that’s how I’d expect them to act.

You said it. We “lose” elections but we’d win there? No chance.

As for term limits you’d have to limit staffers terms too or else they would be a power behind the throne for inexperienced members.
