Article V of the United States 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.
The Federal Government is an agent of the States, as it is a compact between the sovereign States, that has been delegated certain powers that are of the common interest of all the States, whilst reserving all other powers to either the States or the People (in accordance to which powers the People have delegated to their State in their state constitution).
In the event that the Federal Government was to become too overbearing and tyrannical, such that it would refuse to remedy its injustices and wrongs, the Founders ensured that the ULTIMATE SOVEREIGNTY of the States remained intact by allowing them to amend (or outright abolish/replace) the Constitution without the approval of the General Government.
We have reached an era where the General Government will NOT correct itself, it is now the DUTY of the States to ARREST these EVILS and to interpose and interdict on behalf of their respective People.
Petition and lobby your State Legislatures for a Constitutional Convention, an outright abolition of the CURRENT federal government should be the aim, whilst updating certain provisions in order to prevent the same evils from arising once again.
Think about it, either we have a peaceful revolution through a Constitutional Convention, or it comes down to a violent and EXTREMELY bloody revolution instead, that will probably last a couple of decades, and we may end up with a WORSE government than what we currently have.
You really wanna get rid of the Constitution don't you?
