Speaker 1: where you get the entire seminar list of the classes
Speaker 1: that are being discussed at Empower You two twenty five
Speaker 1: Northland Boulevard for the studio, and you can always stream
Speaker 1: these courses online. Welcome to the fifty five KRC Morning Show,
Speaker 1: Rob Tuddle. Do we want a constitutional convention? That is
Speaker 1: the question mark subject matter of the upcoming conversation taking
Speaker 1: place tonight the tenth at seven pm online Empower You
Speaker 1: America dot org to get registered for that, whether you're
Speaker 1: going to show up at the Empower Youth studio or
Speaker 1: in person. Let me get by a way a background,
Speaker 1: Rob Well, He's done a ton of research on the
Speaker 1: constitutional conventions. He's been actively involved in politics more than
Speaker 1: twenty years, elected three times of the Warren County Central Committee,
Speaker 1: volunteer lobbyists for a number of nonprofits across the states,
Speaker 1: including Dayton Right to Life. He teaches classes on the
Speaker 1: Constitution across Ohio, both as a member of Building Blocks
Speaker 1: for Liberty YAY and the Institution Institute. Rather on the Constitution,
Speaker 1: focusing on the serious problems of government overreach and fiscal irresponsibility,
Speaker 1: subjects near and dear to my heart. So Rob, Rob,
Speaker 1: it's great have you on the program. Why are you
Speaker 1: a no on a constitutional convention or convention of States?
Speaker 4: Well, thanks for having me on b and this a
Speaker 4: real honor. As you said, I've been doing a lot
Speaker 4: of research into this, because when you first hear about
Speaker 4: this idea that we could have a constitutional convention and
Speaker 4: do things in the Constitution by adding amendments that the
Speaker 4: Congress won't do, they won't limit themselves, right, it's pretty exciting.
Speaker 4: So unfortunately, I'm a bit of an analytical personality, and
Speaker 4: I decided to do my own research on both sides
Speaker 4: of the issue, and so what I found out was
Speaker 4: that ultimately everything pointed to a very dangerous situation if
Speaker 4: we were to convene another constitutional convention. If you remember
Speaker 4: the first Convention, they were expected to merely revise the
Speaker 4: Articles of Confederation, which was our first constitution, but yet
Speaker 4: they ended up throwing it out out and creating an
Speaker 4: all new constitution. Once those delegates are convened in a
Speaker 4: constitutional convention, they have plenty of potentiary power, which means
Speaker 4: they can make any changes to the Constitution they want.
Speaker 4: And I think this is a very dangerous time, a
Speaker 4: very toxic political environment, and we could expect to have
Speaker 4: a lot of shenanigans at a convention like.
Speaker 1: That, And I understand that concern and one of the
Speaker 1: concerns expressed by my friend Rick Heron, who's been on
Speaker 1: the program a bunch of times over the years on
Speaker 1: variety of subject matters. He's, you know, Article five convention advocates.
Speaker 1: He says, he always asks them, well, who will be
Speaker 1: selecting the delegates? And the answer is is he points
Speaker 1: out the state Assembly, which is leading to how reliably
Speaker 1: conservative is the majority of the speaker of the House
Speaker 1: in your state. We've got a bit of a problem,
Speaker 1: like hrting cats in Columbus. It's republican state, it's a
Speaker 1: Republican governor, House, and Senate, and yet they can't seem
Speaker 1: to get anything accomplished by way of conservative values. That
Speaker 1: is a bit of a problem, isn't it.
Speaker 4: Well, absolutely, we can't necessarily trust the state legislatures to
Speaker 4: appoint people that are going to do a good job
Speaker 4: for at least US conservatives. But I would say that
Speaker 4: it's not even a sure thing that the state legislators
Speaker 4: are going to appoint the delegates. There was a Congression
Speaker 4: Research Service report which is the most comprehensive research on
Speaker 4: how an Article five convention would actually be conducted back
Speaker 4: in twenty fourteen. It was updated by the CRS in
Speaker 4: twenty sixteen and seventeen, and they pointed out that there
Speaker 4: are no rules around a constitutional convention or the requirements
Speaker 4: or characteristics of delegates, not even how many delegates there
Speaker 4: would be. And the CRS suggested that Congress actually has
Speaker 4: broad latitude. And you may be familiar, and I'm sure
Speaker 4: you are, with the Necessary and Proper Clause at the
Speaker 4: US Constitution that says that if Congress can call a convention,
Speaker 4: then they have certain capabilities with respective defining the boundaries
Speaker 4: of the invention that they that they call. So it
Speaker 4: could very well be that Congress creates a situation where
Speaker 4: the delegates are elected in the states. There's, in fact,
Speaker 4: that has been suggested in legislation in the past.
Speaker 1: Well as a I suppose a failsafe mechanism. Whatever would
Speaker 1: happen in this convention of states. Constitutional convention would have
Speaker 1: to be then submitted to the states for ratification or
Speaker 1: for approval, and you're going to have to get everyone
Speaker 1: and thirty how is it thirty seven states would need
Speaker 1: to agree.
Speaker 4: Yeah, thirty eight.
Speaker 2: Yep, So that.
Speaker 4: Would be the force of the states would have to ratify.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, So if they went off the rails and
Speaker 1: you know, they took away our freedom of speech, or
Speaker 1: our Second Amendment rights keeping baar arms, or do what
Speaker 1: they always are doing anyway, ignoring our Fourth Amendment right
Speaker 1: to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures once it
Speaker 1: lands in any given state, to be like hell, no,
Speaker 1: we're not going to vote for that, and then the
Speaker 1: whole concept be thrown out the window.
Speaker 4: Right, Well, that's a possibility. I would suggest that thirty
Speaker 4: four states have to request the Convention in the first place,
Speaker 4: and so you've got thirty four that are going to
Speaker 4: be pretty likely to respond positively when they come back
Speaker 4: for ratification. But you know, more than that, we've seen
Speaker 4: the states in recent years, and take a look at Ohio, Brian,
Speaker 4: We've seen the people of Ohio pass things that we
Speaker 4: never thought that they would pass in the Constitution of Ohio.
Speaker 4: I'm not sure that I want to take that risk.
Speaker 4: And frankly, there's a bill in the US Congress right
Speaker 4: now by Jody Errington out of Texas. It's in the
Speaker 4: Judiciary Committee. As we speak that says that the ratification
Speaker 4: will actually be done by conventions in the States, not
Speaker 4: by the state legislatures. So when George Soros and those
Speaker 4: guys get their money and advertising, we've seen what they
Speaker 4: can do by the people of the States and convincing them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like the abortion issue in Issue one that's currently
Speaker 1: pending right now, there is fat liberal money behind support
Speaker 1: for Issue one, and I'm a firm no on it
Speaker 1: to the extent you want to listen to me vote
Speaker 1: no on one.
Speaker 4: Right, Oh absolutely, Where I guess said, you know, most
Speaker 4: of the money for Issue one, the current issue one,
Speaker 4: as well as the previous ones, came from out of state,
Speaker 4: a lot of it, even I from out of the country. Well,
Speaker 4: you know, what do they do in metal in the
Speaker 4: state of Ohio.
Speaker 1: Well, and that's just going to be a phenomenon going
Speaker 1: forward as the world has become an extremely close play
Speaker 1: small place and foreign influence is really easy to accomplish
Speaker 1: these days through just handing out checks to people to
Speaker 1: go ahead and submit the campaign contributions directly to the
Speaker 1: re elected representative, even though the money originated in a
Speaker 1: foreign country. Crazy stuff going on out there. Tonight is
Speaker 1: the night seven PM for Rob Tuttle talking about the
Speaker 1: Constitutional Convention. Empower you America dot Org. I strongly encourage
Speaker 1: you to get under there at anytime today register to
Speaker 1: attend in person or to attend virtually. Rob, good luck tonight,
Speaker 1: have an enjoyable conversation. I know the pro folks are
Speaker 1: going to be there. We had a woman calling Diana
Speaker 1: called in earlier said their folks are going to be
Speaker 1: in the audience.
Speaker 2: Oh good, Well promised.
Speaker 4: To play nice I talked to those folks all the time.
Speaker 1: Good so she promised to play nicely with you.
Speaker 4: We always play nicely with each other. But can I
Speaker 4: just take one second to put in a plug for
Speaker 4: Orlando Sanza because I've had this Yeah. So Orlando, I
Speaker 4: know I've heard him speak about the enumerated powers in
Speaker 4: the Constitution. I know he's a fiscal hockey's a CPA.
Speaker 4: He's anxious to get on the budget committee up in Congress.
Speaker 4: And we wouldn't have a budget problem or an out
Speaker 4: of control spending problem if we had people like Orlando
Speaker 4: Sanza in Congress who would obey the constitution that we
Speaker 4: currently have. A man, I don't know why people think
Speaker 4: that if Congress doesn't obey the Constitution today that merely
Speaker 4: adding a couple of new amendments to the Constitution is
Speaker 4: all of a sudden they're going to start obeying it.
Speaker 1: Echoing the comments from a listener that made earlier this morning,
Speaker 1: he said the exact same thing.
Speaker 2: Rob had fun tonight.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the conversation, folks, tune in through the empower Youamerica
