>>We were intended by Jefferson to be a nation of free states developing independently and competitively. This structurally fell to final descent in 1913 with the passing of the 17th Amendment, when states were no longer able to appoint their own senators and became victim to special interests and the globalist whims of Wall Street and Madison Avenue, further consolidating the centralized governance in D.C. and capital in New York. A supercommittee of governors and advisers, 12 maybe, should form and meet to discuss how this can be repaired. <<

On December 7th at Mount Vernon, state senator David Long of Indiana will host a meeting of delegates from at least twenty-six states to discuss the parliamentary rules for an Article V amendment convention.
