It's my pleasure. We've all got to help educate our fellow citizens,

This is a link to one of the top groups working for a Convention of States:

https://conventionofstates.com

You can find a lot of good info there.

As for the 17th Amendment, it changed the way US Senators were picked. Previously, they were appointed by the State Legislatures, who were direct to We The People. Now, they are elected by WTP, just like the House.

The big problem with this is that the House was supposed to represent the People, the Senate to represent the States, and the President to represent the Federal Gov't.

With Senators being directly elected, there's nobody to represent the States. And what they've done ever since is to increase the power of DC and reduce the power of States.

Our nation is supposed to be a Confederation of sovereign states, but has become Nationalist (or worse) form of government. A return of States' sovereignty will seriously kneecap DC's power.

Interestingly, the 17th Amendment was "passed" in 1913, the same year they created the Income Tax and the IRS. This was not an accident. This was a planned theft of our rights by the Federal Gov't and it must be reversed.

Also not a coincidence? The First World War was launched within a year of this.

Do you want to go down that rabbit hole?
