These globalist money-men are also hostile to our Constitution, which they want to rewrite in a new constitutional convention, also called “Convention of States.” Eric O’Keefe, who has close ties to the billionaire Koch bothers, backs the Never Trump movement and is a board member of the Convention of States project.

Sometimes it pays to read the whole article. The above quotation demonstrates how wrong Phyllis Schlafly is about Ted Cruz and how wrong she is about an Article V convention of states. It also demonstrates how wrong she is about Eric O'Keefe and how desperate she is as she resorts to drive-by smears. No wonder her children and her close associates attempted save their political organization from a woman who has grown very old and erratic.

If Donald Trump is not elected, or if elected and disappoints, we will have no place to go but to a convention of the states. Meanwhile, the idea is to get Trump elected and a lot of posters on this thread are making it more difficult every time they get off with gratuitous anti-Cruz insults which are, as usual, factually flawed.

Thanks, NBF...I read the whole article, and I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment.

I am a man of few words, and believe that brevity saves me time. Some here, seem to live on the interwebs. I have crops, and animals to tend.

You are a treasure, as are the rapier wits of Laz, 2ndDivisionVet, and humblegunner.

Many thanks!

Frankly, Cruz earned those insults, the last months of his campaign, he showed just how far from a conservative he is, yet you keep pretending he's one.

Go ahead, explain:

1. His petulant blaming of Trump for the violence in Chicago, rather than the protesters paid agitators. (Heck, if the campaign was still on, taking that premise, he might be blaming Trump for the dead Dallas police)
2. Running as the squeaky clean Christian candidate, he had a deceitful, lying (Ben Carson in Iowa, yes, Ben saw it then, we all should have seen it) snakish campaign staff who acted worse than most of the GOPe candidates we complain about.
3. He brought in the Bush family, and all the GOPe apparatus and funding, partnering with them to take Trump out. Did he think they were actually going to nominate him? Did he think the base would actually not see what he was doing? Treacherous, AND stupid in the worst of ways.
4. The alliance with Kasich at the end, and the dissolution of it and then the pretense it never existed after he found out how disgusted the primary voters were with it. The boy lies through his teeth and desperately thought he could get away with that kind of thing.
5. The despicable way he has allowed the non unification of the party. He and Romney together, along with Paul Ryan and the rest of the #nevertrumpers, aiding and abetting Hillary for all this time.

There are more, and I am certain you will make some dumbass, condescending comments (because, after all, with that oh so clever avatar, you are clearly smarter than everyone here) about how none of us but you see the truth. So get to it. I look forward to your defending the indefensible with your supposedly grandiose IQ, which quite honestly, isn't.

I agree with your point about the convention of the states. There’s nothing globalist, or anti-globalist for that matter, about the process. The process itself has no ideology. It’s value, pro or con, would be determined by the specific amendments set forth. It could have a positive effect if the right amendments were put forth. Most of the proposed amendments I’ve seen from proponents like Mark Levin are not globalist in nature.
