Calling A Constitutional Convention

A MOVEMENT IS AFOOT, all across the fruited plain, to organize and execute a constitutional convention, and more power to it. Texas and California are prominent in the ten or so states in which the movement has seriously hold. Texas, of course, would love nothing more that to secede from the union, A-gain, and form the Conservative Republic of Texas. California, conversely, would exit the nation on the liberal end of the spectrum, and form the Socialist paradise of California, Inc. Thirty four states at a minimum are required to call for a national constitutional convention, and there is currently no indication that this number will ever be reached. However, nobody thought the Trump movement would go anywhere either. We need a new constitution, point blank. The question is, should we scrap the constitution for a whole new model, or merely amend the one we have now? Most people would probably favor the latter, whereas wisdom might suggest the former. Maybe we can all at least agree that the two amendments prohibiting alcohol and repealing prohibition could be left out. Above all else, the second amendment needs to be clarified, written in specific, modern terms, not to abridge or destroy it, but rather, to make it more specific, easier to understand, harder to disagree about. A modern, secular, civic definition of marriage would be a good idea. Gays rights, transgender equality, women's reproductive rights, all vital modern issues, should all be spelled out clearly in our new constitution. Problem is, does anybody know even a single conservative who would be willing to consider this?
