We are so afraid of the power the founders put forth and intended for us to use. I don't quite get it.
Many would argue this from the opposite side of the aisle from you.
California was recently calling for a convention but i seem to remember it was on starkly different issue.
And just out of curiosity, what scalia decision are you referring to?

Good on them. The ideological reasons for calling the convention are irrelevant. It's the idea that the states have the right to do so.
If 2/3rds of the states decide to call a convention on the basis of making Obama lord of all and ruler of nations, then they can do it. Good luck on the 2/3rds though.

I believe it was District of Columbia vs. Heller IIRC.
