The fact that the states themselves have to approve the amendments and not congress.

Each state is set up differently, but no one state has more POWER than another. LA's vote is as strong as Ca or NY.
It's a sea of RED within most of the states legislatures.

quote:34 (2/3 of states by number) states can call for a convention. The convention is free to vote on any amendments to the constitution or even replace the existing constitution, which is what happened once before with the Articles of the Confederation. (No, GT, that was not how the Confederate States of America was formed.)
What are the rules on a convention?
The amendments must then be submitted back to the states and it takes 38 (3/4) of the states to ratify the amendments proposed by the convention.
