Wow. You really want those repealed?

“...something resembling what the Founders intended”

What the founders intended was having an ammendment process. They aren’t the 10 Commandments.

Sorry. I didn’t actually read the amendments you mentioned. I assumed you meant the egregious amendments, like the 16th and 23rd. Those should be repealed. (Why would you even mention the others? Do you actually know anyone on FR that wants to re-institute slavery?)

By the way, the amendment process does not give Congress carte blanche to violate the fundamental principles of the original text.
