Convention of states is a trojan horse. The convention of 1787 was a runaway convention as they were supposed to revise but they threw out the Articles of Confederation and replaced it with our current Constitution. The same will happen with the proposed convention of states and it will not be good. There are already constitutions written in anticipation of this. They have revised the Second Amendment to add more definitive language. Why?

Why not just propose an amendment like has been done in the past? Why do we need a convention of states? No one in favor of the COS has ever responded to that question. Ask yourself why? The Constitution we have now is a great one and it is not being followed. That's the problem. It does not need to be reviewed. Frankly I do not trust the people in our government to do anything good for the people.

You are mistaken. Convention of States is a nonprofit, non-partisan, grassroots organization of citizens for self governance. The goal, of course, is to get to a Convention of States, but the mission is to create the largest grassroots army of citizens for self governance. As unpaid volunteers, we reach, teach and activate Citizens.

We are cofounded by Mark Meckler, Atty, and Michael Farris Atty. Mark Meckler was the founder of the tea party and interim CEO of parlor.

Congress has been proposing amendments since the beginning, but as George Mason said, are we so naïve as to believe that Congress is going to limit itself? I’m paraphrasing, of course.

I am very familiar with this organization as we have fought against them in Montana and continue to fight against this project. Educate yourself about what the Framers really said not what Mark Meckler is telling you.

I invite anyone who is interested to investigate the information in favor of following the Constitution as the founders intended. Why on earth would one fight AGAINST using the constitution?

Go to Cosaction.com and click on the resources tab at the top.

I assure you that COS is a grassroots movement 5 million strong across the country.

Maybe try Unity instead of tearing down the patriots who are trying to preserve and protect our Constitution!
