So, you don’t need an education on the Article V process because you’re a regular listener of Mark Levin’s? Obviously you’ve been sleeping through class because your fallacious arguments have been addressed many times before by Mark.
You’re misrepresenting the situation regarding Article V and trying to pass it off as analysis. First your false contention that, to make the case that the Article V process will not be a ‘runaway’ process means that it must therefore be a form of tyranny, is absurd. Tell that to the framers who created the provision. So it will be a form of tyranny to propose amendments that still need to be approved by 3/4 of the states? Even those that would be approved by the convention would still have to be agreed to by 2/3 of the state delegations present. On a state by state basis, we are much more Red than we are Blue.
By the way, are you against any new amendments to the Constitution or just those that are proposed through Article V?
Mark is wrong! Golly, did that ever occur to you that he is not infallible. I’ve read the liberty amendments and see many flaws. Mark thinks he can make amendments so good that no one could possible subvert them. I like Mark but I also know vanity when I see it.
Have your convention. I’m certainly not stopping you. I just think you, Mark and many others are foolish and expect to find virtues that are terribly out of fashion. I’m not worried about a “runaway” convention, but I am worried about the level of cowardice in our own camp and how that will cave under media pressure.
As to how I feel about amendments, I am not against them but I will question why anyone believes an amendment will prevent bad behavior. Term limits and Balanced Budget are, in my opinion, foolish and unnecessary. Its an outright admission we don’t have good people in government but instead of doing hard work of raising and finding good people, we will attempt to bind bad people. That’s the argument for gun control: ban guns and criminals will obey that law.
Actually, I would love to see an Article V convention, right alongside nullification by states and committees to explore secession.
