I've flipped once, and now I'll flip right back to my original view. The Convention of States is not a good thing.
Who is behind it? I only found one person, Mark Meckler. Surely there are others, why doesn't the Convention of States Project disclose who they are?
Nowhere on their page, conventionofstates.com. do they give the text of the proposed amendment -- nowhere. There are some things they would put in it that are disclosed, such as putting a lid on deficit spending. But, the actual text is not there. Whenever there has been a proposed amendment in America's past, they've always given the text. How can you even decide if you are for something if you cannot read the text? And, if it includes changes throughout the Constitution, that does amount to a whole new Constitution.
Abraham Lincoln said it best. "Don't interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard to our liberties."
The Constitution is a divinely inspired document. Why replace it?
