Then, it’s a good thing that amendments emanating from a COS do not originate thru Congress then, isn’t it. And, furthermore, it’s a good thing a COS exists so that the states themselves can put forth amendments to correct the situation in Congress.

The 9th & 10th *already* exist to ‘correct the situation in Congress’....I fail to recall ANY State doing just that.

To think they will 180 vs. COS is just naive.

A9/A10 do not impose term limits. A new term limit amendment will, almost by definition, only emanate from the states. And the COS is setup perfectly for that scenario.

IF we should ever get to an Article V Convention, we MUST have, at the minimum:

1. Restate the 2nd Amendment, thus: “The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. The people are the Militia and are necessary for the security and protection of a free State.”

2. Term limits and recalls for elected officials.

3. 25th Amendment include all elected officials.

4. 14th Amendment apply ONLY to LEGALLY born or naturalized.

5. No legislation may be passed without three public readings.

Minimum.
