An Amendments Convention will represent the country as it exists at that time via the appointment of delegates by state legislatures. The legislatures of conservative states will appoint delegates who will do their best to formulate amendments to limit federal power and restore the concept of federalism. The legislatures of liberal states will appoint delegates who will do their best to prevent the convention from proposing such amendments. This is how a republic works.

Freezing liberals and Democrats out of an Amendments Convention would be a futile exercise. What is good about an Amendments Convention is that everybody will have to put his cards on the table and make his case.

We can only hope, and work as hard as we can to see to it that our legislators are so wise. (Republicans like Bush did have the poor judgement to select dishonorable men like Traitor John Roberts).

If nothing else we must appeal to the power greed of both democrat and republican legislators. Get them to dream of a world where they weld most all of the domestic power of the Federal Government.

Democrat politicians are many things ideologically but among those things is power hungry. Spare no effort to bring that out of them at a convention and set their sites upon Federal Power, and what amazing things they could do with in the framework of their more malleable state.
