Would be nice if this could be taken by “conservative” naysayers to a Convention of States, who argue it would lead to removal of the second amendment.

In reality, the 2A is being eroded in every way OTHER than a new amendment by leftists... I have no problem with them TRYING to remove it by Constitutional means, but they don’t. With the former, they’d have no chance.

Markey is a creep.

Even worse than Lurch.

Good luck getting it ratified.

But then the seventeenth amendment was never ratified, yet we still have the income tax.

The Senate Judiciary Committee last week approved a resolution to amend the Constitution by empowering Congress to regulate the amount of money that could be raised or spent in federal election campaigns, and granting state governments the same authority in state elections.

He who controls the money controls the outcome........................Kinda like 'Spice'....................

are pushing a "People's Rights Amendment"

WOW, that sounds outright Soviet.

Reminds me of the Volkskammer in East Germany.

Both XXIII and XXVI were ratified quickly, and both were extremely ill-considered.

Don’t like the Constitution or just parts of it? Then just enforce the parts you do like but only for the people you like. Or just twist the meaning until it suits you.

Not sure I see any need for amendments.

That's right! If you want to fundamentally change USA, you can! However, you cannot legally do it by legislating or judicial decreeing; you _must_ amend the US Constitution. Or else you are leading the country to war, against those who defend her from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
