UPDATE AUGUST 22: NHTPC has received at least two phone calls from liberal groups pushing a CON CON, further convincing us that it would be a dangerous exercise.
Article V of the Constitution:
– Gives NO guidelines for how to conduct a Con Con.
– NO rules on how delegates will be eligible or selected
– States have NO Guarantees they will even be represented
– Con Con could result in a COMPLETE CHANGE of our way of government
– There simply are NO controls over the delegates once selected.
We must stop the call for a Constitutional Convention!
Below is a vitally important petition.
The future of our nation is at stake. We are becoming more alarmed by the day.
Because the drive to force a Constitutional Convention (Con Con) is growing stronger.
Many of you are receiving appeals asking to support a Con Con. ALEC is supporting it.
More and more articles in Conservative publications support the call for a Constitutional Convention.
The Internet is full of such messages. Many in the Tea Party are beginning to support the idea of a Con Con.
BUT NOT US.
Those pushing the idea are powerful and well funded. Every single state government and all state legislators in the nation have received very expensive, professionally-produced packages detailing how a Con Con could be called and controlled for a Conservative agenda.
This is an outright lie. A Con Con can not be controlled and there can be no guarantee that delegates will do anything they are instructed to do.
By calling a Con Con our precious Constitution will be placed on an operating table and cut to ribbons. Nothing is more dangerous to our Republic.
But the movement for a Constitutional Convention is gaining strength. Conservatives are being targeted because of our love of the Constitution and our frustration over how it is being ignored by those leading our government.
The effort is misguided, dangerous and just plain wrong.
We must stop this movement now.
Below is the link to a petition sponsored by APC to NH’s Governor asking her not to sign on to the Con Con movement. You do NOT have to donate to the organization sponsoring it if you do not wish to do so.

Editor’s Note: The MIAC Report has declared that anyone who is against a Con-Con is a potential terrorist.
