So when will they show up? I would like to be 100% with you but until things get really, really bad, I do not see the adults showing up.
Amen Brother.
California law is essentially identical to Arizona’s...
Just not enforced - as usual...

No one is saying that a new “Constitution” would be anywhere NEAR as good as that of the Founding Fathers....
Of course, you are right. The delegates to a new Constitutional Convention would not be fit to shine the shoes of the original framers...the Founding Fathers. But, we are going downhill anyway...why not just get it over with? It is too late to stop.

The trouble is: It seems that the ‘sleeping giant’, once stirred, yawns and goes back to sleep! I’m serious! It gets awakened, growls, then lies down and goes back to sleep! Either that- it’s drunk, or on drugs, and goes back to sleep. Not to seem cynical; but I’m wondering if it’s dead! If it’s still alive somewhere in America, I hope it wakes up soon!

Recall that it was "the PEOPLE" who elected the current denizen of the "White House."
What makes you think that such a Constitutional Convention wouldn't result in the formation of an absolute monarchy? Or perhaps a Socialist Peoples Paradise?
Only a damn fool would think the result could ever be better than the Constitution we have now.
