And they don't want to rewrite it; they want to REINSTATE it.

More Laws won't do that. If they won't obey the current law why would you expect they would obey the new ones? Unless of course the new laws only applied to you, like ObamaCare.

"If they won't obey the current law"

[I assume you mean current Constitution]. This is not strictly true. Some parts are obeyed and some parts not. We still have a Congress, a President and a Supreme Court, for instance. We still hold elections every 2 years. So far, 0bama has not overstayed his term limit.

It is the structural parts that are obeyed and those need to be modified - such as term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court, for instance. Congress would never vote for that but a Convention probably would.
