Respectfully, the problem won’t be solved because the 65 million anti-Americans who voted for this fool would still be living in American territory. No, we need to rid ourselves of them once and for all. Everything else is just more conservative forestalling the inevitable. I say face the real problem now and deal with it.
I cannot help but feeling that an Article V Convention will at least be a waste of time, at most a travesty.
Federalist 85: “We may safely rely on the disposition of the State legislatures to erect barriers against the encroachments of the national authority.”
Although I am a fan of Hamilton, his opinion was based on an educated populace that loved liberty. We do not have the same people nor the same government that he was advocating.
We are now a post-17th Amendment society awash in love of government manna, debt, adoration of a new messiah and constitutional ignorance, in sum may be the most ignorant generation in world history.
Remember the role and power of the national media. Obama won re-election despite the debt and failures. What does that tell you about today’s political machine?
For an Article V convention to be successful, dealing with the national media must be the first consideration.
