Should We Hold an Article V Convention: A Debate Between N.H State Rep Max Abramson and Constitution Scholar Robert Brown
Camp Constitution Radio recently hosted a debate between Mr. Max Abramson, a New Hampshire State Representative and a sponsor of resolutions applying for an Article V: https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/shurtleffhal/episodes/2021-02-20T17_19_51-08_00
Article V of the U.S. Constitution:
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.
Mark Meckler, CEO of Parler-A Troubling Development
Like tens of thousands of Americans, I signed up for Parler because, unlike Twitter, and Facebook, it supported free speech. Early January, it was deplatformed. It is now back in business with Mark Meckler as its CEO. This is a troubling development.
Who is Mark Meckler
I first encountered Mark Meckler back in September 2011 at an event held at Harvard Law School entitled Conference on the Constitutional Convention that he co-hosted with Larry Lessig, a left-wing Harvard law professor. The odious Cenk Uygur of the Young Turks was also on hand at this event. In the wake of this event, Meckler formed Convention of the States (COS), and Uygur formed Wolf PAC. Both groups have the same goal: hold an Article V Convention. Meckler’s group openly advocates “structural change” of the U.S. Constitution. Meckler, who claims to be a conservative Christian, vilifies patriots who dare oppose an Article V Convention. His New Hampshire COS once accused me and fellow vocal Article V opponents of bribing New Hampshire State Senator Kevin Avard. Thanks to a friend who was receiving unsolicited E-mails from COS, we caught them in this lie.
Meckler’s departure from COS to Parler may be because, COS has had little success over the past three years getting its resolutions for an Article V Convention passed by state legislatures. Recently in New Hampshire, the State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs Committee voted 19-2 against his resolution. However, he may be using Parler to advance an Article V Convention. Time will tell.

George Washington’s Farewell Address
Today, we observe what is now known as “President’s Day” but once called Washington’s Birthday to honor the birthday of the Father of our Country who was born on February 22, 1731. While the Marxists-Cultural and otherwise, have been working to denigrate the memory of Washington and other founders, we at Camp Constitution, true to our motto, honor their memory.
We reprinted George Washington’s “Farewell Address” and make it available on our website in a PDF: https://campconstitution.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/George-Washington-Farewell-Address.pdf
And here is a reading of Washington’s Farewell Address conducted by the late Pastor Garrett Lear at our 2014 annual family camp:
Truth from The Youth: A Review of ” Rescue Mission Planet Earth: A Children’s Guide to Agenda 21″
Back when the members of the Deep State used the term “Agenda 21,” the United Nations published Rescue Mission Planet Earth: A Children’s Guide to Agenda 21. It is one of the most vile pieces of propaganda that I have ever read. Gus and Stephen, hosts of “Truth from the Youth” review the book: https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/shurtleffhal/episodes/2021-02-12T17_11_49-08_00
