  • which part do you feel is more likely to happen. Congress sees power! – Power it isn’t likely going to relinquish. Elections are bogus; see 2012 and voting in a congress that is likely to is a pipedream – so how exactly do you expect that an Article V convention is going to get called

    Amendments may be proposed by either :

    two-thirds of both houses of the United States Congress ; or
    by a national convention assembled at the request of the legislatures of at least two-thirds of the states.

    To become part of the Constitution, amendments must then be ratified either by approval of :

    the legislatures of three-fourths of the states ; or
    state ratifying conventions held in three-fourths of the states.

    Congress has discretion as to which method of ratification should be used.
