Texas Gov. Calls For “Convention of the States” to Stop Barack H. Obama

(Before It's News)

For anyone who is a regular listener of Mark Levin’s radio program, you know that the Article V Convention of the States is something Mark has been supporting for some time now, because it is one of the last possible solutions in a long list of what was originally intended to be safeguards against runaway tyrants like Barack Obama. 

In the first video below, get a brief background on the Constitutional provision, and why certain current and former members of Congress support it, along with various media personalities, not the least of which is Mark Levin. The proposal aims to invoke Article V of the U.S. Constitution to propose new amendments to the founding document. Opponents to invoking Article V say that there’s no telling what compromises crooked politicians will make at an Article V Convention, and the end result could be far worse than what we have now… but we are left with very few options. 

The Executive Branch has gone completely off the reservation and made legislating from the Oval Office a regular practice when the President doesn’t get his way, so long as the President has a “pen and a phone with him,” (something prohibited by Article II), an ongoing and increasing problem with the U.S. Supreme Court is that it’s become a co-conspirator in tearing down our Constitution.

In practice, the Supreme Court has become nine unelected legislators (something prohibited by Article III), and Congress itself, the branch tasked with the power of the purse strings, has become so pathetic and weak, we’ve come to expect nothing more from them than whatever the winds of the liberal media tell them to do. 

Agreeably, there is potential for compromises that could lead to disaster when it comes to proposing new amendments to the Constitution, however the witching hour draws near, and time is running out for the United States. Check out the following video:

Conservative Tribune Reports:

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott led the charge in court against President Obama’s amnesty program for illegal aliens. Now, he’s joining the fight on another front, pushing a “convention of the states” proposal that has gained momentum in Obama’s second term as many conservatives attempt to rein in the federal government.

The proposal aims to invoke Article V of the U.S. Constitution to propose new amendments to the founding document.

On Friday, Abbott officially called for just such a convention to seize power from a federal government that is out of control and return it to the states. He called his proposed amendments “The Texas Plan.”

Some of the amendments in the proposal include prohibiting administrative agencies and the unelected bureaucrats from creating and preempting federal law; mandating that Congress balance its budget; allowing a two-thirds majority of the states to override a U.S. Supreme Court decision, federal law or regulation; and prohibiting Congress from regulating activity that occurs within one state’s borders.Abbott argued that Obama has abused his presidential authority, and trampled on the United States Constitution.

“If this is allowed, the United States Constitution has been completely rewritten,” Abbott said in an interview with the Examiner.

“The United States Supreme Court is a co-conspirator in tearing down our Constitution, which is exactly why I am calling for a Convention of States so we can restore the Constitution to its original principles,” he added.

Abbott argues that a convention would force the federal government to “take the Constitution seriously again.”

Abbott has already launched a groundbreaking fight against the imperial presidency with his lawsuit over Obama’s executive action to open the door to citizenship to millions of illegal aliens living in the country.

States that have joined Abbott in the lawsuit include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The Supreme Court is expected to decide the case in June.

So far, only five other states have joined the call for a constitutional convention, but with Abbott now on board, the movement will likely only get stronger. The following we Governor Abbot’s remarks recently:

  • Uhhh, stop him from what, leaving office in 7 months? Sheesh…

    • Rush to prevent Obama from leaving the WHite House before he’s arrested. Don’t let him get out free. Put the handcuffs on him and lead him away. He’s an illegal, undocumented alien. Everybody knows the system’s corrupt but there are limits to the shame the USA can endure. Obama’s a humliliation to the USA and to the world. Even “Ancient Rome’s Decadence” didn’t see this level of corruption. Obama’s got dammed ID papers.

      Obama’s the Antichrist and I’m the Messiah because no one else has stoood up to call out the Antichrist Obama. I spread the news of the proof Obama’s the Antichrist which is that on the day after Obama’s election, in his homestate’s lottery 666 was darwn and that’s the Number of the Antichrist. I’m the Messiah because I’m the ony one with the guts to do it: so join me and be saved too, seeing that’s your only chance in this world to get to heaven.

  • Yeah eight years later and now people want to do something to stop him? What a joke.

  • Forget it Abbott, you’re about 8 years too late. Go back sleep.

  • If our illegitimate Government ignores our current Constitution, why would they obey a new one?

  • Slow as government works, it would be years before anything could change by convention of states.
    Then you have to be careful what you wish for, like starting a backfire that could be unpredictables if the winds of change come up from another direction.

  • I admire GovAbbott and Mark Levin but I dont think without devine intervention or without a military coup I dont see things changing their ball is in motion. The illuminati scumbags didnt count on the world wide web when they put these horrific heinous plans together and they realize people are turning off their propaganda mainstream lamestream news and are switching to unencumbered truth from Wachmen all over the planet (alternative media. They are running scared and have accelerated their despicable population reduction agenda. Sure there are less than one percent of this vermin running the planet and yes they have over half the wealth of the planet they have robbed from all countries all people but we can eliminate them and put themin prison our rights allow us to do that. There should be a bounty on the heads of this criminal mafia which includes many of the US federal higher ups. I have researched these sick elite and have found out they all worship satan they or most are bi sexual or gay and they are pedophiles this includes the QUEEN and many other higher ups. Search Queen and Pope indicted for pedophelia rape kidnapping and murder in Belgium and there were 40 eyewitnesses that testified. We have some sick sick sick peeps deciding your demise and we are funding it how stupid are we as americans to fund the plunder of nations and our own death. They have over 800 concentration camps up and running with no prisoners when we are letting peeps out of federal prison because of overcrowding???? Here is a factoid for you the US has more people incarcerated than the rest of the planet combined and you wonder why? Follow the money greed will take this country down alone.

  • A tall tree and a short rope would solve many of America’s political problems.

    Arrest those responsible for treason, espionage, and other nefarious crimes. Give them a speedy speedy trial and if people are found guilty of crimes against America and humanity publicly hang them in front of the state capitols, the U.S. Capitol in Washington D.C., the White House, the various state Governor mansions, the U.S. Supreme Court Building, or in the middle of a town square.

    Hang them all and it will probably be a long time before a dishonest person would ever care to be a politician, or a crooked federal judge again.

    The problem is not the federal government structure.

    The problem is the corrupt people who have seized our government offices, agencies, courts, and political parties.

    It’s time to clean house of every crooked politician out there sucking like a vampire the life blood out of the American peoples necks.

    Corruption is running rampant in this country because We The People have allowed it. There are more of us than there are of them, the corrupt politicians.

    Constitutional sheriffs can deputize every man, woman, and child if needed to arrest these criminals.

    I feel certain the same criminals committing crimes in Washington D.C. are also committing crimes in their individual states where they reside.

    Most criminals are criminals anywhere the go. That includes their home states.

    State crimes committed within a state falls under the local sheriff jurisdiction.

    A clean sweep of American political as well as banking criminals would go a long long way in restoring America.
