This is territory I thought I would never have to think about but something stinks lately to say the least.

    That process is more dangerous because it’s less constrictive. Going through the legislative branch limits it to one amendment and is a drawn out public process. At a constitutional convention the representatives can debate and pass anything they want to with the required 3/4 vote without public notice or input. I don’t trust our current political system not to add corporate written amendments to the constitution if they have the chance to do so without public review.
