If it is not a constitutional convention, what is it? There are only two methods of altering the consitution, one originating in the congress and one originating in the states. The one originating in the states is a constitutional convention.

No, the States are not calling for a Constitutional Convention. Read Article V for clarification and comprehension. What do you think it’s called when Congress calls for an Amendment? It’s no different when the States call for it and it’s their right. The founders intended to give the people recourse and Article V gives that power to the people. Read the other sites I posted instead of giving the knee-jerk response.
