Charles Kacprowicz presents "the" most compelling explanation of the Article V process: 1) how it originated from the Articles of Confederation to the Constitutional Convention; and 2) how the Framers intended State Legislatures to use Article V and Single Issue Amendment Conventions. Virtually every pro Article V group today will cause the abdication of Legislature sovereignty. Only Citizen Initiatives and the Countermand Amendment will safely restore our Constitutional Republic while protecting Article V for future generations. You will learn how we can restore our Constitutional Republic through the non partisan Article V COUNTERMAND AMENDMENT. Presently 18 States have sponsors and 9 have either filed or are in the process of filing in their committees. (LA, NM, AZ, UT, TX, NV, WY, SD, ND, WV, NC, GA, AK, NH, OK, NC and MO.) 4 States expect to complete Applications directing Congress to convene the Countermand Amendment Convention in this legislative session. Charles Kacprowicz shows how we will soon restore our Constitutional Republic safely and quickly. Thirteen State Legislatures in 1787, through the delegates they sent to the Constitutional Convention, created a new Constitution. Eventually all thirteen Legislatures ratified it. With ratification, they also created three Branches of the Federal government. The Federal government did not create State Legislatures. The Federal government is subject to the collective will of today's State Legislatures under Article V. The Founders wisely left for future Legislatures sovereignty and deliberative authority that empowers them to modify the conduct of the Federal government through Amendment Conventions when the people suffer an egregious wrong that the Federal government refuses to remedy. State Legislatures do not need the consent of any Branch of the Federal government to convene an Amendment Convention for the purpose of proposing Amendments to the United States Constitution.
