American Crisis

Should the ongoing egregious assault being perpetrated on Americans' rights and freedoms by the current autocratic U.S. Government come to an end, taking a deep breath of relief – and assuming that attempts to annul our Constitution will not be made again would be grossly naïve!

In addition, complaining ad nauseam about the aforementioned bleak "State of the Union", certain that other committed patriotic Americans would suffice to save our Constitutional Republic – and doing nothing – would also be grossly naïve!

Conversely, accepting the fact that "Our Constitution" is being ignored, and trampled on, by a sycophantic, incompetent self-serving MAGA Administration members led by a would-be tyrant president intent on blatantly abolishing our 238-year-old protector – the U.S. Constitution – is NOT being naïve!

Moreover, accepting the fact that, to really recover and ensure that our freedoms, well-being, economic equality, voting rights, national security, etc., requires that freedom-loving Americans get involved and demand the Constitutional Updates needed to protect our protector – the United States Constitution – is also NOT being naïve!

As history attests, despite a few anxious moments, our Constitution – first ratified in 1788 – has served as the bulwark and protector of our centuries-revered Constitutional Republic.

Now, unconditionally, at this existential moment, it is WE who must do our patriotic duty to protect our imperiled protector. How?

Calmly, inculcate the importance of saving our Constitution in the minds of your family, friends and neighbors.
Join group(s), such as Indivisible, propagate the importance of our Constitution regarding our precious rights and freedoms and emphasize the dreadful consequences that would befall everyday Americans if not strengthened – A.S.A.P.
If necessary, create your own local group and follow the above-stated in ¶ 2.
Instill in others the idea of calling and/or mailing copies of the Constitutional Updates¹ (herein after provided) to the members of Congress and demanding their patriotic promise to support the strengthening of the U.S. Constitution.

NOTE

As always, pessimist naysayers will argue that convening a constitutional convention and ratifying Constitutional Amendments is a difficult task! Of course it is!
However, historically, when ratification of constitutional amendments were of crucial importance to Americans, they were ratified relatively quickly.
For example, in 1933, when President Roosevelt took office, it took less than one year to ratify the 21st Amendment, which repealed Prohibition.
Also, the 26th Amendment, which lowered voting age from 21 to 18 years, was proposed in March 23, 1971 and ratified in July 1, 1971. How long did it take to ratify? One hundred days!
So, don't let uninformed naysayers tell you that ratifying an amendment that aims to save our constitution itself is impossible. It IS possible! ⟨Back
