Just one more time as you don’t catch on too quick:
“We have state governments for a reason. Regardless of what today’s media would have you believe, state representatives are not elected state paper-shufflers or federal mandates. State governments share power with the federal government as equal partners.”
The state legislatures and Governors can invoke the 10th amendment anytime they want. Its as simple as that. Eventually they will start doing it as things get worse and worse.
An Article V convention is never going to happen and if it did by some miracle of God the amendments that come out of it would have no chance to get ratified. But that’s OK you keep dreaming about it. :-)
