I readily acknowledge several possible ways to achieve the goal, some of which I do not endorse at this time.  I want to take the most peaceful and legal means possible to save and restore the Constitutional Republic called the United States of America.  I want to see it function within the bounds, limits, and guidelines of the American Constitution, not the United Nations Charter.  I want America back and lay blame at the feet of both parties in a very large measure.

I believe the politicians have ‘stolen’ our Republic from us for their own political purposes and agendas.  I believe that their quest and thirst for power, in the name of helping the people, has resulted in the complete shredding of the American Constitution to the point that it is no longer working as it was designed.  The courts have aided in this travesty.  The Executive and Legislative Branches have been major culprits in this assault on our American Constitution and, thereby, the Republic our Founding Fathers established and handed down to us. 

How do we SAVE the republic?  That is a most interesting question and one that requires a significant amount of thought and weighing options to come to a definitive answer.  Another question might be, can we save the republic?  That depends on where we turn for our solution to the problem.

Congress is not the answer, so where do we turn?  Mark Levin and others have hit on what may well be the only hope we have of saving the Republic.  I see their idea as possible but fraught with inherent danger. But, for the sake of argument, let me present their idea.

Mr. Levin bases his argument on Article V of the American Constitution. He proposes that we seek to get two-thirds of the State Legislatures to call for a Convention to Propose Amendments to the United States Constitution.  The proposed amendments would then have to be ratified by three-fourths of the states to become valid. 

I agree that we cannot depend on the U.S. Congress, President, or Supreme Court to restore the Constitution, so the individual states are possibly our only hope.  Are there enough State Legislatures willing to adopt this idea?  I do not know, as we have failed in previous attempts.

I hope that in a very short time, enough people will see this President’s lawlessness and the perpetual dangers that, if not stopped, could lead to a Tyrannical State.  If that happens, then we might get something done peacefully and legally.  We can hope!

People, not politicians, will ultimately be the answer.  It is only as the people within the nation rise up in sufficient numbers, either electing or sending fear into the hearts of elected officials, to cause them to respond.  That is an easier accomplishment on a state level than a national one. 

The State Legislators are frequently more attuned to the people’s wishes and more likely to respond to pressure than National Legislators.  There is an infectious disregard for our wishes on the Washington scene, so those in Congress seem to be inoculated, isolated, and insolated with regard to our voices and desires.  That has to change, and the only way it will change is by taking drastic steps to amend the present Constitution and restore power to the States and, thereby, the people.

We desire a republic, not a tyrannical, despotic regime.  The only way we can have that is to take power from them.  I do not just identify Democrats in that statement but Republicans and Independents in Washington as well.  They have and are virtually all guilty of destroying our Constitutional Republic and should be held accountable and stripped of their power ASAP.

It will be God, not man, who ultimately determines if we will have a Republic and keep it or lose the nation.  Therefore, I believe we should work as if everything depended on us and pray as if (and it does) depend on God. 

I have for some time been committed to intercession for the nation.  In doing that, I pray for the leaders that God will guide their decisions, touch their hearts, and bring them to the light of right and truth!  I do not pray for the success of agendas clearly outside the scope of Scripture or not in the best interest of the American Republic and its people.  I cannot do that!  I must speak up, speak out, stand up, and stand firm in hopes of seeing the Republic restored to its Constitutional mode of operation.

I suggest that each one research the possible avenues to save the Republic.  If you believe one is viable, your elected State Representative, Senator, and all other State officials who might be an aide in attempting to save the Republic.  I, like you, want to see our Republic saved and our Constitution honored and followed.  We may not agree on how to accomplish that, but hopefully agree on that objective.

May God bless you, and may God bless America!
