Citizens Dedicated To Preserving Our Constitutional Republic
Here is why we must unite in common purpose against a common enemy; Progressive/Socialist Federal Government.
There are several Major attempts to reform the Current Constitutional Amendments to bring the Constitution back into line with what the Founders intended it to be. Having all these separate movements detracts from our strengths just as those in power want it to be weakened so they may maintain their strangle hold over the people and the nation.
We have The Article V Project To Restore Liberty's proposed 28th Amendment that states;
We have the Compact for America that has a major movement going;
We also have the Convention of States;
The Convention of States (COS) Project was founded by Citizens for Self-Governance for the purpose of stopping the runaway power of the federal government. We believe Washington, D.C., is broken and will not fix itself. The federal government is spending this country into the ground, seizing power from the states and taking liberty from the people.
All these movements are dedicated to wresting the power that was stolen from the people by the Elitists in Government and returning it to the people. Those are Good & Laudable intentions, but as my father used to say,"The road to hell is paved with good intentions".
Here's what is wrong with having multiple movements going about it in differing ways. All the manifold movements are good in themselves, but what they lack is cohesion and numbers large enough to overwhelm the politicians. I seriously doubt the Washington Politico's and their hidden puppet masters would even blink if 90% of the American population demanded they relinquish even an iota of their stolen powers. So how do all these movements plan to succeed individually?
My point is they can't if things remain as is.
I know there are many reputations involved, some big, some average,some small. All those reputations are on the line, and they shouldn't be. They should be working in concert with each other as our Founders did, to create a workable agenda to Restore the Republic, and to Return the Constitution to it's original form with the checks and balances restored to their original strengths to maintain a healthy balance in Government. Never forget what the elitist politico's want you to forget; The Constitution was designed and intended to be the ironclad collar on the Federal Government to prevent what is happening today. It's happening because the people were lulled into the belief that the Federal Government and those rapacious Politico's running it were acting in the best interests of the people instead of themselves.
We need a workable plan to fight the Elitist Monied Powers that want to rule over all of mankind by first destroying the hope America gives the world to resist them.
My proposal is for all of us who want to see a resurgence of the American Ethics of Freedom,Liberty,and Self Rule under Constitutional Law, individually contact the leaders of these Patriot and Constitutional reform groups.
The message to them is "United in Common Purpose with an agreed upon Unified Agenda, will have an unstoppable force which will bring about the desired ends that have not been attained separately." We also know we will have extremely limited acquiescence from the Elitist Politico's entrenched in Washington's Clan Locked and Self Aggrandizing environment. The few True Constitutional Patriots there are always being over whelmed by the entrenched hydra like power mongers.
This begs for a workable way around the Washington Labyrinth of Elitist Controllers.
In my opinion we must all focus on our state Legislatures and force them if necessary to accede to our demands they petition for an Article V amendment proposal convention, or for them to unite with all the 50 state Legislatures and send a proposal for an amendment with the same exact wording about repealing the 14th,16th,and 17th amendments. This must be done first to give the people and the states the Legal upper hand that cannot be degraded by Congress or from a Bench Edict from SCOTUS.
From there we can move forward and push for an amendment that will establish term limits for Congressional Representatives, and any other amendments we decide we need to maintain our Liberty and Freedoms, including returning to the states the usurped controls of the EPA,Dept of Education,Dept of Agriculture, etc. We can even put in place an agreed on method to stop the abuse of Eminent Domain and all the other abuses the Elitists took from the States for their own gratification, advancement of their personal and political fortunes.

Your post, I mentioned I didn't know if what I posted was what you had in mind. Your response was. "Not what I had in mind at all, It was to show that the progressives inside the GOP are doing exactly what the dems are doing which is wasting time and money on useless investigations/programs while money is pouring out of a hole the size of texas on useless and unconstitutional items."
Anyway, looks like I'm on the wrong direction of this particular discussion.
So I'll remove that post. Still have time.
remove what you want but that doesnt change that you changed my words...no where did I ever say the ''total of the gop''
Although I do contend that the GOP has a failure record that goes back 50 plus yrs and that the ''PARTY'' can not be trusted to do what they say they will do
HUH! You lost me on this one. I had no intention of changing your wording.
McCain in Big Trouble for GOP Primary
John McCain's troubles with conservatives have him in a whole lot of trouble for reelection next year. Even among Republican primary voters just 41% approve of the job he's doing to 50% who disapprove. Only 37% of primary voters say they generally support him for renomination, compared to 51% who say they would prefer someone 'more conservative.'
If McCain is smart, he will not run again. He became too much the RINO over the years, or maybe we weren't awake enough then to see it.
Your proposal is good and the steps suggested can work if carefully executed with many in each state's groups having one voice with this being the top of the agenda and prioritizing a list of things to follow of course with all state groups nationwide using the same list. Keep in mind that there are issues unique to each state and adding them too the list will have to be passed on to committee. A task to be sure but worth a try at least.
Then for consideration I offer this .....
Take this discussion, and others you penned in creating a General Nation wide proposal to be sent to all groups in each state. There are a hand full of TTP and others in my area including Phila and can get the General proposal to them. Each member of this site and other sites members run on can offer the same proposal with a list of all groups contacted posted here....and not taking away from you suggestion of individual contact to representatives, but offering the individual voice of many harmonizing of the same song.
It is a start and am of the hope this can be the catalyst to a successful campaign to refine the movement with the unique
approach to accomplish all of what we speak here,
Just a thought
Banti,
It sounds like you got what I was proposing. The overall national fight needs to be addressed by all the groups with the same purpose and in the same way, so there will be no duplication of efforts in one area and nothing in another area of concern.
The groups handle their own individual states issues, but can call on the others for help in numbers for calling, faxing, letter writing on the issues following the wishes/protest agendas of the State groups asking for help..
This could even be taken to the Local level to overwhelm any problems being caused by local politicians.
I'm not much involved, but would lend my hand where I can. Even if it is just making a list and checking it twice. Wish we had such as you and Bandi in our Congress.
Bandi would be good at it but I am a very lousy public speaker and could not get my points across to the public simply speaking them.
