Can the Constitution Save our Nation?

By Tom Dowdy

For 227 years, the Constitution has been the supreme Law of the Land.   All of our military and elected officials swear to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.    Up until recently, this has been the foundation of all our government.    Now it seems there are those in our government that either refuse to adhere to what they have sworn to do or simply ignore the oath they agreed to.

The question now comes down to, how do we force these oath takers to follow their own words?

The answer lies in the Constitution itself.    Article V gives the citizens the right through the states to propose amendments to this Constitution.    Amendments used to stop this over reaching government.   Amendments that will apply term limits on all elected and non-elected officials.   Amendments to rein in the power of this out of control corrupt government.   Amendments can reduce the size of our government and its bureaucratic departments.    Amendments that stop the EPA, DO Energy, DO Commerce,  DO Education, Bureau of land Management form writing rules that have the force of Law.

 

Ask you state legislator to back an application for an Article V Amending Convention.

 

Convention of the States

by Glen E Terrell

We are about to repeat the same thing we've been doing for decades; re-elect 90% of incumbents to a congress fewer than 10% of us think is doing an acceptable job.  It might be laughable, but consequences of our collective behavior include continuing national decline.  What are we doing wrong?  How can we change it?

We conservatives tend to cheer when Darrell Issa, chair of the House Oversight committee calls the committee to order.  Then we're thrilled when Trey Gowdy questions a witness; "Sic 'em Gowdy."  The truth is;NEITHER Issa nor Gowdy WILL EVER call for abolishing the IRS.  Why?  Congress needs the complex income tax and evil IRS to maintain its control and dominion over us.  Income Tax + IRS = CONGRESSIONAL POWER and with it, congressional corruption.  There you have it.

Our best chance of reclaiming our country and reigning in our government is an Article V Convention of States.  Such a convention can propose amendments to the constitution which must be ratified by 3/4 the states to become part of the constitution.  Some amendments might render common congressional behavior illegal.  It's our best chance.  Go to http://conventionofstates.com/ and become part of this effort in your state.
