I read that we could be looking at a Newsom/Susan Rice ticket for the next electionThis turd must never become president
Our Amendments are meant to limit .gov, NOT the people!
Conservative media should start making the point right now that a Recall Election of a Governor is equivalent to an impeachment of a President - successful or not.I read that we could be looking at a Newsom/Susan Rice ticket for the next election
OMG, just the thought that Newsome has his head so far up his ass that he thinks a Constitutional Convention would go well for his worldview is astounding.I welcome Newsome's proposal. Let the antis propose such an amendment and they will understand that the overwhelming majority of the American people support the RKBA as it exists today.
And while we are at it, let's bring up a few other potential changes at a Constitutional Convention. Newsome may be surprised at how well some other proposals might do.
I want an amendment, to cancel any amendment after the 10th,from taking effect..............
TBH I could support an amendment that limits the 5th amendment rights for politicians.An amendment to restrict and existing amendment? That would be a first.
Make that an electric train.How ironic. I propose this guy go stand in front of a fast moving train.
Not a first. 21st Amendment repealed the 18th Amendment.An amendment to restrict and existing amendment? That would be a first. It would reach actually be voted on as it would basically be rewriting 2A which can be done through the constitutional convention process. I would imagine there would be competing version from is and neither would come to a vote.
He can propose it.I have no issue with this being proposed. Put into action, yes. Proposed? No. This is the point of our country. We should be having discussions and pointing out why this is a stupid idea. We're a country of debate, where it's difficult to change amendments for a reason, as @dsdmmat said.
The problem is most parties don't want to have a deep dive because they know the flaws in their arguments on big issues. They want sound bytes to manipulate the emotions of their ignorant followers.
The 2A doesn't need simplification. It needs teeth.I am more than fine with this, and I openly welcome a Convention. Think about what can be accomplished.
Get rid of the 16th Amendment.
Correct the wording of the 14th.
Strengthens the 14th.
Simplify the 2nd.
Much positive can be done with a Convention.
