Assume that many groups with widely varying agendas would all want to participate in such a convention. I can't imagine the left wielding enough political power to set the rules and resist what would be a massive PR campaign by the right for inclusion. And once they're in, it's prayer in the schools, anti-choice, good bye Darwin, flag burning amendments and everything you can think of that would result in general oppression and misery.

So I'll still go with what we've got rather than dealing with a potential monster. At least BushCo violates the Constitution when it taps phones or monitors emails, for which it's theoretically criminally liable. A new Constitution might just allow those practices, and hundreds more, that are now unconstitutional but would become the law of the land if the right had its way.
