Ok so let's bitch and moan and accuse one side of trying to change the constitution while we try to change the constitution?
Framers intent baw. If they intended term limits, it would have been in there.
Turn off levin and do your own thinking

No.
Once convened, Republicans would do their customarily caving to Democrats. DC & Puerto Rico would end up as states, a PC equal rights disaster would be added to the Constitution, PC changes to the 1st Amendment and a total Liberal white wash of the 2nd Amendment.

The Constitution is fine the way it is. It just needs to be followed. Now if they're talking about repealing the 19th amendment, I could support that.

Absolutely... Balanced budget bill and term limits for all federal government officials

If any common citizen is against term limits with what is going on in our government today, then my God......

Term limits.
We're likely to see Mork from Ork land on the White House lawn before we ever see constitutionally mandated term limitations.

We don't bitch about the left wanting to change the constitution.
We bitch about the left not even bothering with changing it as designed and simply reimagining it.

Convention of states is the best way to get it done.

Its odd that so many are scared of doing this legitimate constitutional process, but don't care a whit when the Supreme Court changes the Constitution illegitimately.

How is that a truth bomb?
Do you not understand why the situations are completely and utterly different? I asked that guy the same question but he never answered.

If the Supreme Court creating law that violates the constitution doesn't scare the shite out of you EVEN IF YOU ARE A LIBERAL AND THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAWS SUIT YOUR AGENDA.....something is wrong with your compass as an American

"It is our goal to limit the federal government to its delegated, enumerated, Constitutional functions."

That doesn't even make sense. And is irrelevant to our conversation
Do you not understand the difference between the nation's most senior jurists interpreting the law and a bunch of our elected representatives trying to create a new document or amend existing law?
If you don't think there is a fundamental difference then there is no reason to even have the discussion

You clearly lack a basic understanding of how the Supreme Court works
