That amendment can be a long term goal. But in the short term, the more effective methodology would be through the promotion of strict constructionist federalism.

IE, Roe was decided wrongly, and this is a state issue.

Once this gets into the legislatures, or in the case of the more cowardly states, into a referendum, we’ll see, truly where the mood of the country lies. Once 3/4 of the states have abortion restrictions, THEN go for the amendment.

Fred gets it. Going after the amendment right now is almost pointless. It wont happen. Going after it the way Fred prescribes gives it a good chance.
