Hey everybody, let’s have a constitutional convention at Sven’s house.
It would take the legislatures of 34 states to call a constituional convention and it would take the legislatures of 38 states to pass new constitutional articles/amendments.
Currently Democrats control 12 state Senates and 14 state Houses of Representatives. Nebraska has a unicameral legislature that is ostensibly non-partisan but conservative.
All together Republicans control the legislatures of 30 states, Democrats control 11, 8 are split and 1 is non-partisan.
If the Democrats stuck together, they could defeat a constitutional convention and anything that was proposed that they didn’t like.
Article VI of the US Constitution (excerpt):
The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.
The American people voted to install an ineligible President on Jan. 20, 2009, void the US Constitution, void the United States Code, fire all US executive and judicial federal officers from all three branches of government, except Obama and Biden, and fire executive and judicial officers of the various states.
The votes, bills, proclamations or any other product of the legislatures of the various states have been voided after the installation of an ineligible President. Only the People of the United States, Obama and Biden have authority to call a convention for development of a national governing document.
