The founders would’ve been shooting by now.
The American Legislative Exchange Council has produced a fine document by Rob Natelson as a handbook for state legislators interested in petitioning Congress for an Amendments Convention. I have that as a beautiful color Adobe document that is too good to break down for HTML. The Council does in fact have a link to that document.
Natelson's work is outstanding, and he has 90% of it right. But he did not appear to read the 1973 ABA Report, which is he has 10% of it wrong.
There are good reference works for this topic which should assuage the fears of those who think that an Amendments Convention could simply start over again with a new constitution.
If I ever get my Professor Publius website up, I intend to sell MP3 versions of lectures on constitutional topics, and one of them will be a lecture laying out all the angles on an Amendments Convention, to include the ABA Report and Natelson's paper, developing the differences between them and the legal aspects.
I told my son some time ago: in many ways, King George didn't treat us this badly! Good grief! The Boston Tea Party was over a 1% tax! Who wouldn't cheer a 1% tax today!!!
