Quite right.
My point is that every four years we experience an extra-congressional confab of state delegates called the Electoral College.
There is no external check on the EC.
No EC has ever ‘runaway.’
Therefore, experience shows there is little to fear from a convention of state delegates in convention.
Small states outnumber big states
However, 13 states can block anything. It’s more likely to be a waste of time than a run-away convention.

I wish, though, that 20 years ago the marriage amendment had been proposed.
