Our Declaration of Independence is part of the &#8220;Organic Law&#8221; of our Land; and recognizes that a people have the right to throw off their government and set up a new one.  James Madison, who was a Delegate to the Federal &#8220;Amendments&#8221; Convention of 1787, invoked this Principle as justification for the Delegates&#8217; ignoring their instructions to propose Amendments to the Articles of Confederation, and writing a new Constitution which created a new government and which had its own new (and easier) mode of ratification. <a href=\"https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/03\/what-the-convention-lobby-isnt-telling-you-about-our-declaration-of-independence-sep-21-2020.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">For Proof see What the Convention Lobby isn&#8217;t telling you about our Declaration of Independence.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. So James Madison had firsthand experience of an Amendments Convention &#8220;running away&#8221; and proposing a new Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>    This is why James Madison said he &#8220;trembled&#8221; at the prospect of another Convention.  For Proof see this: <a href=\"https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/03\/what-the-convention-lobby-isnt-telling-you-about-our-declaration-of-independence-sep-21-2020.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/03\/what-the-convention-lobby-isnt-telling-you-about-our-declaration-of-independence-sep-21-2020.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>    This is why James Madison warned that those who secretly wish for a new Constitution would push for an Article V Convention under the pretext of getting Amendments.  <a href=\"https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2023\/12\/george-mason-never-said-it.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">For Proof see George Mason Never Said it at endnote 3. <\/a>    <\/p>\n<p>3.  And this is why Four (4) US Supreme Court Justices (two Conservatives &#038; two Liberals) warn against an Article V Convention.  <a href=\"https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2021\/04\/brilliant-men-ben-franklin-v.-meckler-ap.-18-2021.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">For Proof see Brilliant Men Warn Against an Article V Convention.<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>This war isn&#8217;t between Liberals and Conservatives or Republicans and Democrats.  This war is between those who love our Constitution and wish to protect it; and those who seek to get rid of it and impose a new one.    <\/p>\n<p>4.  New Constitutions are already prepared!   <a href=\"https:\/\/publiushuldah.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/12\/exhibit-list-for-presentations-in-opposition-to-an-article-v-convention.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Here are the proposed new Constitutions which are already online.<\/a>  See ## 1 and 12.
