For the trolls that use scare tactics to disrupt any discussion of a CC, read the history of when Americans threatened early on in the 20th century to call for a CC. It scared Congress so much that they agreed to take up the proposals of the People.
And that's just what we need now, starting with a marriage amendment and then following with a repeal of the 16th along with enactment of the FairTax, concurrently with a new amendment to allow state legislatures to vote for recall of their wayward US Senators, and an amendment writtne by Barnett above that would rein in abuses of the Commerce clause.
The Left has not a chance to ever get 38 states to ratify their socialist failures on our United States. But we have 38 states that can ratify for many of our purposes.
America is still a conservative country but we have to use a sledge hammer to demolish the socialist apparatus that is transforming our great land into one stinking Detroit.
Amendments may be proposed by two-thirds of both houses of Congress or by a convention.
There is no need for a ConCon.
Yeah, I see how this would work. The Big Goverment loving supreme court just rules that for a compelling government interest, the fedgov need not be bound by that amendment. Think that won’t happen? For the better part of a century they completely ignored “congress shall make no law” and “shall not be infringed.” And need I remind people of roberts re-writing obamacare from the bench in his ruling? We blew right on by being able to fix this with a constitutional amendment a long, LONG time ago.
What’s the point of another amendment? SCOTUS will just ignore it, like they do the 4th, the 10th, and so on. What’s really needed is secession.
Is this also what Mark Levin is proposing?
