Ok, so you don't support an article V convention. What is your solution? Is it the people need to rise up? Rise up and do what?

Earlier, he suggested that the Congress propose a Constitutional Amendment to repeal the 16th Amendment. A noble and certainly laudable goal, to be sure, but to expect that this could be accomplished in the Congress of the United States is worse than silly, it is a dangerous sidetrack.

In another location he states “..the Convention of States project comes to the people’s rescue and suggests they forgo rising up and demanding an adherence to their written Constitution...”

This is a truly mind boggling distortion of reality, which is that the Convention of States project exists for only one purpose: to assist and facilitate the rising up of the people as an effective force not only to demand, but to ENFORCE an adherence to our written Constitution.
