We have less than a year and a half to set something in motion that will stop the whipsaw regime changes. Changes like the ones from Trump that were destroyed by Biden, and back to Trump removing the bad decisions by the autopen administration. Our Nation can not continue to stand with that going on. It will shatter the very foundations of our society. I really believe the powers that want us destroyed hope to see that happen.
The ONLY way to set up changes which would be hard to reverse, is through amendments to the Constitution. We can't trust our Congress critters to do the right thing and propose the necessary amendments, amendments which would severely cut into their power and graft, now can we?
That leaves the Article-V provision where the people through their State Legislatures can propose amendments. I know that many people have been falsely led to believe an Article-V amendment proposal convention would turn into a con-con, and open the basic Constitution up for revision. Think about it, if that could happen then somewhere along the line of the last 27 amendments unscrupulous politicians would have been able to do that to enhance their power and wealth at our expense over and above what they already have done.
For those of you who are scared about what could happen, you can go to the online ArticleVprojecttorestoreliberty.com site and research. That is a site which tries to answer all the questions both pro and con about a States called Article-V amendment proposal convention.
We don't have much time to get everything up and going, if we want to decide our fates here now, and the future of the United States. Decisions by the people, that Congress critters can't willy-nilly decide to change. Things like a balanced budget. Term limits, forced reduction of the national debt, one page plain language bills, bills put online to the public to read for 10 days before being voted on, amendment that requires 5% of collected taxes to be distributed equally to all people who are successful in their ballot initiative to run for office, and no other funds allowed, not even out of their pocket, to campaign on. Equal amounts of air time with equal time slots for airing for every candidate, and paid for by 5% fund with no other time or payments being allowed.
If the congressional make up changes with the mid-terms we won't have another chance to save our society and our freedoms along with it.
Executive orders, laws, rules regulations can be changed at a whim. Amendments can't. They also can't be declared unconstitutional by the courts. Like the Gramm-Ruddman balanced budget act was. I believe that Congress cobbled together that act to thwart what was becoming the first successful States called Article-V convention. It was allowed to stand until the backing for the States called Article-V evaporated as unnecessary.
If we do this, and turn back to God and obey the spirit of his commandments, he will allow Trump to be successful in all his America First, Constitutional Restoration endeavors.

What are your thoughts on this? Any further suggestions?

I believe in Justice. I believe arrests/jail/Gitmo/execution are the medicine we need. The right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness has not yet stopped abortion. The people are deaf, dumb and blind.
Justice served up on a Constitutional/Declaration Platter, would work wonders for restoring fear of being seen/known/tried/punished as a criminal, fear of being stupid on the courts, fear of Gitmo, fear of hanging. What would bring these fears up to control unruly govco people? Gitmo. Hanging. Punishment.
We have never followed the Constitution. What does the word "NOT" mean? What does the word "LIFE" mean? What does the term, 'REPRESENTATION" mean? Justice first. It WILL put fear in people, which is needed—by those who KNOW they are working against America.
Spare not the rod of Justice. If spankings are good medicine for kids, then.......
Saying it another way, the Fear of God works wonders to all unruly tyrants as well as children, citizens and all of us.
Interesting article. This is a new approach to me but important. Lets look deeper.
I believe the regular amendment process is safer and preferable. I believe, first, the orginal 13th should be made law. It was ratified. No lawyers in gov. Remove the 13th, 14th, 16th and 17th.
One new separate amendment requiring written proof of how any new law fulfills both Constitutional Jurisdiction, Authority and Necessary and Proper demands by the Constitution.
One new separate amendment requiring only the Natural/Moral Law to be our written guide. As Lincoln stated more eloquently than this, but one standard of equality in all situations and for all citizens. The Declaration of Independence, "The Law of Nature and Nature's God."
Racism as one example, is wrong in all places, all generations, all reasons. No exceptions. Simpler. Clearer. Moral.
If morality does not apply to law, then there is NO standard nor is there a plumbline. That is not what we were given.
Jea9, The regular process is the same. All proposed amendments mujst go through the Article-V process to be valid. I know there are factions out there who say if 38 States agree to a new amendment it becomes law immediately. That is not true. The provisions of Article-V are ironclad in the legal process.
1. 34 States petition for an Amendment Convention regardless of what tney call it, Article-V only provides for Amendment proposals, nothing else. When the 34 States officially petition congress, Congress by law must convene the convention then step back and allow the states to take control of what is being proposed, say Term Limits, and Congress can not override or modify wording on anything proposed by the states..
2 Congress has set the protocols for amendments being prosed i.e. The delegates to the convention must agree on the official wording of any proposed amendment.
3 Once a proposal is officially received by Congress, Congress must send it out to all 50 states for ratification.
4 It takes 38 states to ratify an amendment into law.
Exactly the same process Congress uses.
According to Publius Huldah, Congress can "call" a convention or propose Amendments, 2 methods. If Congress calls it, they control it. They set the rules, as you state.
According to the Constitution, government is already limited, but we see clearly that it is out of bounds. And the courts are out of bounds. So, there are two problems.
0bamacare was out of bounds, yet forced upon us. Homosexuals were forced on us. Transgenderism was forced on us. Illegal aliens were forced on us.
We had one Convention. it abolished the existing government. It abolished the Articles of Confederation.
It established the system that became the corporation that is now our government, or so they call it.
We do not have a functioning government because it is unbound. It.IS bound to moral relativism, which is "whatever they say it is." The Bible states it as, "the foundation is destroyed."
I might feel differently if I could see ANY SIGN OF JUSTICE in this country, at any level. I am waiting.
Or ANY RETURN to Biblical morality. I am not being rude, I am just angry at not recognizing my country at ALL. I DO appreciate your efforts, completely. WE are ALL desperate.
This is Publius Hulduh's Written Testimony against conventions by several states. It was read into the Record on April 13,2017. She is a former attorney. I doubt if her position has changed through the years.

Publius Huldah in my op;inionm is working for the faction in Congress who wants to scare away any pubnlic action tnhat would reduce their power. Check this out; https://articlevprojecttorestoreliberty.com/publius.html and This; https://articlevprojecttorestoreliberty.com/index.html There ore both pro and con sides explored within that site. Read through it and then come to an informed decision about Article-V and what it actually does.
That's good to know. Thanks.
Don't we wish that even those and especially those on the Supreme Court would follow, honor the way and what was given!
I would take the license to practice from every lawyer if they are not following the constitution. If they have a problem determining what it says......that's hat the Supreme Court is for.
That could be easily corrected by a States called Article-V where a properly worded Amendment would force the Supreme Court to follow the Constitution or be reversed by the people. yes the people have that power
