There's a poll at the end of the column.

"What 3 hypothetical constitutional amendments are most important to addressing the nation's systemic problems?"

IMO:

1. Repeal the 17A.
2. Grant States collective authority to override Congress, regulations or Scotus.
3. Congressional term limits.

Since we know by the next day who has won the Presidential election while when the Constitution was written it took weeks to tabulate the votes, why don’t we change the swear in date to the end of the week after the election instead of January. That would not leave any time for mischief.
Well maybe not the end of the week but certainly not 2 months later.

But can the enabling legislation limit the range of the convention?
