Mock Convention Demonstrates Shallow Regard for the Constitution
The mock Constitutional Convention assembled by Convention of the States repeatedly demonstrated its shallow regard for the Constitution. For this week’s Analysis Behind the News, we point out the inherent problems that calling a convention constitutes, as well as the only true solution Americans have to turn around this country. History will only repeat itself if the electorate is ignorant of the key issues. Given what was shown at the mock convention, history may indeed repeat itself, unless the Constitution is obeyed. Be sure to share this with all your friends and family!
