7- eliminate ability for foreign companies and nationals to own land in the US.

Ooooo that's another good one!

How about this too?

Make all spending Bill and Laws enacted by Congress limited to ten pages or less. Get rid of these 4,000 page laws and spending bills loaded with bullshite and pork that no one has time to read.

Putting a limit on pages in bills and making them cleaner would be great.

The dems and rinos would lose their minds

I like that. That gives States and opportunity to reclaim their voice in the Senate from folks who go rogue.

State legislators appoint US Senators again. Would be a game changer.

Strongly support term limits also.

Strengthen 2A

Repeal birthright citizenship (serves absolutely no purpose today).

Anything to strengthen language that requires feds to do everything possible to ensure southern and northern borders are airtight.

Decriminalize weed at the national level and leave it entirely up to the states.

Abolish the IRS and all payroll taxes in the process.

Mandate that the federal government must maintain a balanced budget…no loopholes…no workarounds.

Single item bills…no more pork.

It's not the constitutional convention they need to worry about, it's the convention of states, unless they're the same thing.

Louisiana itself needs a constitutional convention though.

Absolutely not. The people in government in 1787 were geniuses. The ones in 2024 are morons.

Line item veto or even better, stand alone bills.

1 - Strengthen the 2A

3 - Strict Voter ID Laws

4 - Strict Border Security Laws.

5 - Eliminate foreign money in our elections.

6 - Eliminate Lobbyists' Influence via donations, perks and family favors.

Eliminate #1. It would make passage too difficult. They are all good ideas, though.

It was in the original Articles of Confederation and arguments were made by the federalists to not have that in the Constitution.
