LOL....Can you tell us what the process of choosing electors is? Who is empowered with creating the rules in the states?

Did it work the way it is REQUIRED to work in 2020?

What in God’s name makes you think an Article 5 Convention will work the way it is supposed to work?

Do you really think the deep state billionaire oligarchs who run the country are going to roll over and say, “Welp, we had a good run but now we have to follow the Constitution and give up our power.” ???

The sooner the people realize that we HAVE LOST our country, the better. We are not “losing” the country. It is not “on the verge of collapse”. There is no Deus Ex Machina ending to this story where brave patriots sweep in to fix the Constitution and everyone lives happily ever after.

Our culture is gone.
Our patriotism is gone.
Our belief system is gone.
Our heritage is gone.
Our demographic makeup is gone.
Our national cohesion is gone.

Our country is dead. The vultures are picking over the carcass.

Yes. Can you? Want me to tell you?

The same thing that makes those believe that the present document provides any protections at all.

Look, to state the obvious fact that a piece of paper will not provide you with protections when a culture does not want it is a specious and irrelevant argument. If you claim to want the rule of law, then you have to state WHICH law, and to state "the Constitution" means you have to be willing to actually follow the Constitution, which states very clearly and unequivocally that the individual states have the authority and equal obligation to propose amendments.

All the pot banging yowling about "runaway conventions" and hysterical imaginings of "what if this group does not follow the LAW?" is just noise, and nonsensical noise. If you want to follow the rule of law, then support the law, not just the parts you like. Article V is a part of the Constituiotn and is specified so that we may avoid the mess we are in today with all the power centralized.
