I welcome communist states bringing their favorite amendments to a COS... feel free to bring on, for example, abolition of the 2nd amendment, etc.

First off, this is not a general COS, but has a specific subject. To be counted in the 34 states required, they have to live within the confines of the COS “call” - limiting the federal govt.

And, even if there were amendments from the progressives... there are 30 states, presumably ALL on board of the original COS intent, going to Mount Vernon tomorrow. The progressives will have to amass many more states than the limited-federal-government types will.

I’ve said from the beginning that Article V is an Ace for conservatives and is a nose for liberals. They don’t stand a chance to use Article V to their advantage unless they buy off 34 state legislatures; not going to happen.
