Constitutional Convention. Just say NO!

As we all try to educate people on the US Constitution and demand our government obey it, there are some among us who would prefer to rewrite it.

Some have the foolhardy notion that a Constitutional Convention can be called just to deal with a single issue. They think that they will meet, vote on that issue and nothing else, and go home.

This misguided notion is naive and dangerous.

Once the Convention is called there is no limit to what they can do to the US Constitution.

Sure, it must be ratified by the States, but do you really trust them to do the right thing?

Isn't it more likely that each state will have something in it that state wants and will sell us all down the river to get that thing?

Look at our legislative leadership. Do you really think these people have the liberty of the people in mind? Do you think they even understand what true liberty is?

If they did we would not be fighting to keep what few rights they still allow us. We would not be trying to teach people about the rights they've lost. They would be leading the charge to return to the constitution.

To hear people who claim to be working towards the cause of liberty calling for a Constitutional Convention makes me very concerned.

I'm working on getting my State's convention call reversed, although no one knows for sure if this really has any effect on the call requirements.

Rather than calling for a Constitutional Convention we should be trying to turn the hands of our Constitutional doomsday clock backward, not move it forward.

When I hear someone ask for a new Constitutional Convention, I don't simply say no, I say HELL NO!
