British kings are not impeachable, but their ministers are. Ministers don't just risk loss of their jobs, several have been executed. So after almost seven years of felonies and high crimes committed by Obama and his ministers, not a one has even been fired from his/her post. To impeach a cabinet secretary has become tantamount to impugning Obama, which of course cannot be done. This is worse than 17th century England. This is pre-constitutionalism.
Our governing institutions no longer serve their designed purposes. For instance, does congress actually legislate or does it enable the executive to make arbitrary regs/law? Does it conduct oversight of the agencies it created? Does congress serve to secure our inalienable rights? Does congress or Obama determine spending? The senate has voted to give Obama the treaty power.
Institutions designed for free government have been corrupted into forms that do the opposite; they serve to enable and condone tyranny.
Article V before we can't.
At least one king lost his head. I miss the good old days.

‘bout says it all right there.
According to Senator Mike Lee's recent book, Our Lost Constitution (recommended), only 1% of new laws are created by Congress anymore. The other 99%? Created by executive agencies under authority of laws passed by Congress with overly broad and vague goals, e.g., clean air or clean water.
Nice game, in that when citizens call their congress-critters to complain of injurious laws, our brave legislators can feign empathy, disclaim responsibility, and pass the buck to unaccountable bureaucrats in some obscure alphabet agency.
I don’t think it’s black “privilege”......I think it’s more like they are AFRAID of BLACK RIOTS!!!
It sounds great, but if we can't even get Texas, Arizona and Louisiana on board, I think we can forget about Article V...
