Even 10 years ago, a Constitution Convention was viewed dangerous by most freedom lovers because it risks debates between people who have no understanding of the free state, the free market, capitalism, nor individual rights. It's worse today. Political indoctrination left too may believing we're a democracy; a democratic Republic.

I maintain that the Preamble plainly limits government power to the preservation of liberty. Now it's up to the people as I stated below: "The final clause of the Preamble is directed to..."

Pay "tribute" to traverse the strait? No! Trump needs to stick with the Thomas Jefferson method of dealing with the Islamic pirates of the day. No need for marines on the ground, however, just commandeer every ship hauling Iranian oil and put it up for world auction (on the WTI?) with the proceeds to buy more bombs to use on Islamic pirate nations. On those terms the US Navy can be the biggest pirate on the seas - how would they like those apples, LOL!

A new Constitution would require a Convention. The original one:

"The debate over the U.S. Constitution, from the start of the Constitutional Convention to ratification, lasted over a year, spanning from May 1787 to June 1788. The drafting in Philadelphia took roughly four months (May 25–September 17, 1787), followed by a contentious, roughly year-long ratification debate..."

During this time, and after, the Federalist Papers and the Anti-federal Papers were written, published, and widely debated and discussed in public.

Do you think a Constitutional Convention could be convened in America in 2026? Do you think the Blessings of Liberty would find a widespread audience?

Or has America gone too far toward the ash heap of history for us to recover our nature given individual rights?

The final clause of the Preamble is directed to “ourselves and our Posterity” and elicits us to secure a proper balance of power between government and the People. The Militia is established by the People; for the People to secure that balance.

They are the only ones with the power to do so.

All Constitution-revisions contain unscrupulous graffiti intended to subvert control from the People.

Yet, the Preamble underscores the purpose of the Constitution is to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.

The choice of Constitution is irrelevant; the Preamble plainly limits government power to the preservation of liberty.

Is that the Constitution:
1) As originally Written?
2) As originally Amended (Bill of Rights)
3) As currently Amended?

I see that some 800 ships are "trapped" in the Persian Gulf wondering when they might safely leave.
I wonder how long before those ship owners will be willing to send them back in there.
Has Iran exposed their nature and, instead of imposing a toll, will they have to entice shippers back into the gulf to move their hydrocarbons?
Will WTI be at a premium for some time?

Ditto!

Thanks for posting this explanation!

Sorry I missed this one, brother
Oh for the good ole days, driving by timmy's house yelling RETARD!!!

we never had it so good

Those who haven't, need to join their local Militia.

The only peaceful way to shift power back to the People and Constitution, is with the Militia.

As an example, here's the link to our state's Militia - https://utahmilitia.org/

Brokeback mullahs !!!! ROTFL !!!

I agree with all the comments. And we need state militias. Iran is what happens when the populace is unarmed. The government murders thousands of its own citizens.

They need to do whatever it takes to get the voter ID bill passed because otherwise they may never be in power again where they can do it.

Nice, OUC! With the left and right wings of the uniparty so neck and neck all the time maybe it is time to get rid of the Filibuster and let's see what happens. May as well do it now than wait for the Marxist Dem wing to be in control of con-gress.

Unfortunately, that's all I hear from politicians even Trump.

Agreed. Knowing history is a matter of survival for many producers. I'm tiered of the small class of non-producers, called politicians, that use history to fill their pockets at our expense.

I never had a bench seat, but the back seat of my Dodge Challenger worked just fine!

It only takes a couple of weeks to become dependent on opioids. Surgeons used to give out large quantities post op like candy.

It's not just the filibuster that will be ended, it's the rule by the English system, rule by radical democrats, corrupt democrats and republicans in name only . . . .

Time will tell. I'd love nothing more than to see the famous, high-profile connoisseurs of Epstein's product in orange jump suits and shackles, with tears in their eyes. Please Q, wherever you are, say it will happen...

Perhaps it's a brutal war of attrition.

Of course.

Yes. I agree completely. I had a run-in with opioids after a terrible knee injury in college. I'm not an addictive person. But, those things ravage you when you try to quit them. I quit cold turkey once I started walking again and it just about killed me. People need to taper off them and get ready to bite the leather doing it.

We spent one week in Bologna, then 5 weeks in Verona, with a side trip to Venice. Going back in October and November, staying again in Verona, and maybe side trips to Innsbruck and Florence. I had the pleasure of living in Italy for 9 years, and two years in Germany. thanks to the Air Force. I love Italy!
