Of all the harebrained things we could do to our form of government, possibly the hairiest would be to call a constitutional convention to rewrite our founding document.
But that’s not stopping some folks from calling for one. Over the years, I’ve learned that people who carry the Constitution in their pocket seem to know the least about it and are the quickest to call for changing it.
It makes great fodder for political rallies. It’s an opportunity for right-wingers to rail against a federal government they consider to be out of control and demand the draining of the swamp.
