Um…this is about the Cherokee Nation Constitution. Not the US Federal Constitution.

It’s right there in the first two sentences.

Um... You brought up Article 5 right in your doctored headline.

That was just a mental masturbation thing?

Cherokee Nation Constitution of 1999

The Cherokee Nation is not a State of the United States and cannot propose amendments to the U.S. Federal Constitution under Article 5.

This is nothing like an Article V convention. Article V doesn't allow a convention to wholesale rewrite our Constitution the way that the Cherokee Nation constitution apparently does.
