The only way to ensure that the GOP will support good candidates, and not try to destroy them in the Primary process or by not providing any election support to them... is to join the Party and to volunteer for Party office, and then to help shepherd the good candidates through the process.

And if enough patriots do the same thing (it does not take very many) then you can take over the whole county party.

And if you take over 51% of the county parties in the state, then you can control the state GOP as well.

And... patriots should join the local Democrat Party too, and do the same thing there.

Hey, they can send the bill to Resident Biden.

That is the question that I would like to see the Texas legislature answer.

And I would like to see the Texas Governor declare an emergency and then send the national guard to the border to plug the gap.

Someone asked me if I thought that Donald Trump should run in 2024.

I said that would be unconstitutional, as he can only serve two terms as POTUS, and Trump has already been elected to the presidency twice, once in 2016 and again in 2020.

Currently he's serving in Florida.

No, the next Constitutional Convention will not be populated by patriots like Washington, Madison and Franklin... but it will be filled to overflowing with demagogues like Pelosi, Schumer and OAC.

The radical socialist liberals will be rewriting our Constitution to better suit their globalist ideals, and then the feckless invertebrate Rino Republicans will trade away all of the current prohibitions and protections that are embedded in our Constitution and our Bill of Rights.

An Article V Convention is without question, the most dangerous thing that patriots could request... but it would be the perfect opportunity for the progressive socialists and their marxist followers to complete their total transformation of America.

The proponents of a Article V Convention are offering patriots a Trojan Horse.

Just like the Trojan Horse of Troy, it's what's inside a Constitutional Convention that will be our downfall.

And what's inside of an Article V Constitutional Convention is unlimited power to modify and revise and rewrite the Constitution.

The socialists will use the Convention to advance every item on their left-wing wish list, and the main-stream-media will aid them immensely with a constant never-ending drum-beat of let's "make the Constitution more fair" and "bring it up to date with modern revisions" and then there will be nightly antifa marches and daily progressive rallies and an incessant hue and cry to rewrite what they consider a narrowly crafted Constitution and a dangerous Bill Of Rights, so they can make them conform to their progressive agenda.

Contrary to the rhetoric and literature and promises of the Article V Convention proponents and paid lobbyists, a new Constitutional Convention will merely consolidate and strengthen and broaden the power and control of big government.

A new Constitutional Convention will not limit the federal government further, it will merely reinforce and expand and make permanent, all of the misconstruction of governmental powers that have already been usurped by big government, and that have been acquiesced to and empowered by the some of the state's requests for even more 'free money' from Washington.

Patriots should reject the Trojan Horse that is being offered as an Article V Constitutional Convention. Let's prevent the socialists from obtaining the opportunity of grabbing more governmental power and rewriting our Constitution or carving up our Bill Of Rights.

Reject the call for a dangerous Article V Convention, and lets just start using the Constitution that we have now.

It's bad enough that they stole our recent election. Now they want to steal our Constitution too.

COS advocates are proposing that we open up a new full-blown National Constitutional Convention with undefined and basically limitless powers to rewrite our Constitution. That would open the door to fundamental and unlimited meddling and modifications and changes to the U.S. Constitution. They will end up corrupting and subverting and rewriting our Constitution, possibly inadvertently, but subvert it none the less.

All of the many special-interests that benefit from big-government, are pushing (sometimes behind the scenes) for that new Constitutional Convention. Call it a COS, call it an A5C, call it whatever, but it's a full-blown unrestricted Article V Constitutional Convention.

When they get the Convention they're seeking, they will finally be able to legitimize all of the unconstitutional actions and spending and legislation that they have been so busy with in Washington. And then they will take that very same opportunity to eliminate the Electoral College and to further limit protections of the Bill of Rights. And don't think for a minute that they won't. It will be the perfect opportunity to implement a broad spectrum of changes to the United States Constitution.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with our current Constitution, if they would actually read it and use it and adhere to it, instead of running roughshod over it whenever it's expedient.

Republicans throughout the country are starting to be alerted as to the agenda and the dangers of holding an entirely new Constitutional Convention, with all of the political machinations that are prevalent today, and with all of the many special interests that will most certainly seek to get their own special language added to the Constitution, and with all of the new liberal changes and left-wing modifications being supported 110% by the main-stream-media and by big-money entities as well as by powerful politically-active organizations.

The smaller-population States will simply be overwhelmed in an Article V Convention by the high-population States, and we will be outvoted at every turn and in every instance. With Pelosi and Schumer now in charge of writing the rules to call the Convention, the leftists will outnumber the conservatives and the socialists will not only be able to set the Convention's rules, but they will end up controlling the agenda throughout the Constitutional Convention as well as in the subsequent ratification conventions.

A new Constitutional Convention will merely give the big government special interests an opportunity to modify or rewrite the Constitution in such a fashion, so that all of the current actions of the Federal Government that are not currently authorized by the Constitution, will then be fully sanctioned under the new Amendments. Oh that will not be the outward premise or advertised assertion, but it will most certainly be the net effect of the new Amendments. They will take the opportunity to expand their reach, and to alter the very structure and the functions of our governmental systems. And they will eliminate or negate most if not all of the current prohibitions on the Federal Government that are specified and required by our current Constitution.

The COS/A5C Convention of States is a scam, bought and paid for by big money interests, and it will most certainly write and pass and implement many detrimental changes to our Constitution.
