Please tell me how the House of Representatives or the entire congress with presidential signature amends the Constitution. What am I forgetting?

You are forgetting that the President has absolutly no say in Constitutional Amendments. An amendment requires a 2/3 majority of each house of congress followed by approval of 3/4 of the states. Presidental approval is not required.

See Article V of the US Constitution.

They can do any thing they damn well pleased unless stopped. In the past, there were those that would have stopped them. Since nothing happened when obamacare was forced down our throats,they decided to go for broke. Who will stop them? Not the people for danm sure. The ruling class has nothing but contempt for them.
