That was one of the selling points: Levin said the state legislatures had to approve the list of amendments before the formation of the Article V so that they would know that was going to be discussed.

The state ratification has nothing to do with the formation of the Article V convention. The states only ratify the results.

That is part of the problem with all of these Article V discussions -- there is too much half-information and mis-information about what it is, what is does, how it operates, etc.
