“If a General Convention [called...by Article V] were to take place for it… would no doubt contain individuals of insidious views, who…might have a dangerous opportunity of sapping the very foundations of the fabric.” (James Madison’s Letter to George Turberville; Nov 2, 1788)

Since you cannot control a ConCon agenda once is starts, you have no guarantee that what emerges will be better or even similar to the protections we currently have. The better option is 1) repeal the direct election of Senators, 2 ) repeal direct taxation & 3) educate voters.
