then you know that the reason for the 17th ammendment in the first place was because the senators being appointed by the state legislators was resulting in the same problems we have now.

???? How so? The government largely stayed within its constitutional bounds before 1913. What problems did the 17th correct?

If term limits are the answer, how do you propose to get the constitution amended?

You imply violence rather than a peaceful Article V amendment convention to correct what is wrong with our nation. That view isn't uncommon at FR, but no one has explained how that would work. If you have thought it out, I'd like to read it.

I suspect you haven't read the free Chapter One of Mark Levin's Liberty Amendments. It is available here: http://www.marklevinshow.com/common/page.php?pt=The+Liberty+Amendments&id=4183&is_corp=0

Well dream on and wake me up when the Article V convention convenes.

Meanwhile you should contact Mark Levin and tell him to put you on commission for selling his book. :-)
