    Let me put it this way. If Trump and Obama played a competitive golf game and President Trump decisively beat Obama the fake news would go on for hundreds of column inches about every remarkable play Obama made and crow about Obama came in second.

    Near the end of the story, they would say Trump came in next to last.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    From what I've read, it was the Treasury department that didn't invite them and not the Whitehouse.

    That's not what the courts have decided thus far.

    That's because it didn't happen.

    why are you allowed to denigrate us with slurs like, "bedshitters?" You have the nerve to call us trolls?
