The Tenth Amendment should have been the First.

While I support the idea that rotten amendments like the 16th and 17th need to be repealed, and could also suggest some new amendments, I also think that impeachments for government ”leaders” who ignore the Constitution, particularly state sovereignty, are long overdue.

In fact, a major problem with overdue impeachments is that the lawmakers who have the power to impeach need to be impeached themselves.

Article V ping. A short article with no new information.

I doubt congress will ever call a convention.

The states have submitted hundreds of applications and congress was duty-bound to call a convention every time the number hit 2/3 of the states.

Article V is both a gift and acknowledgement of a societal right of the people to frame their government. Since congress has not, and likely will not call a convention, it is past time for the states to coordinate a convention among themselves.

There is little time.
