The USA does NOT need a Convention of States.
Want to reign in the Federal Government?
Its very easy - kill the Federal Reserve, and return the USA to currency that is not debt-based, and is backed by something banks and government does not control.
Fed.gov and every statist, leftist and social-engineer that lives off Fed.gov debt, and massive personal debt, will disappear.

The stupid party can’t pass its own agenda it ran on for eight years, despite finally having both houses of Congress, the Presidency and a majority on the Supreme Court.
No Convention of States until we can out-organize the likes of Schumer and Pelosi, and outstrategize Barky and lizard-woman.

Can we ever forget that Jim DeMint's organization endorsed Ben Sasse? He didn't seem to be fully on board with the Deplorable agenda. Anything he wants, I'd worry about his fondness for thinking of the global elitists as "conservatives" and what agenda they'd bring to the convention of states.
What the US needs is two new parties: Sovereignty Party and Globalist Party.

I’d love to see a convention of states and the Constitution returned to what it was with 3 more rules: 1) term limits, 2) 1/2 of the government shut down and 3) gold backed money.

DeMint is a real Conservative not one of those fake ones.
There is no excuse for opposing a Convention of the States called by a super majority of Conservative legislatures.
Are you one of those Labor Union loving isolationists?

How do you explain his organization supporting Ben Sasse as a conservative?

Ahhh a naysayer...do you know what the COS is, what it’s about or what it’s for?
To: ntnychik
COS will be the only constitutional act to save this nation
To: grania
The US already has a Globalist party: Democrats+Republicans=Republicrats. We do need a Sovereignty party however.

Ahhh a naysayer...do you know what the COS is, what its about or what its for? In general terms yes BUT - my main point is, the United States has a perfectly good Constitution, if it were followed. But power of the States and individuals has been increasingly usurped by Fed.gov, and its cronies - purely by the fact they can derive money out of the creation of debt.
