[QUOTE="Riflehunter1776, post: 1647337, member: 103369"] the last thing anyone wants is a bunch of blue states reinventing the USA through a convention. If those freaks had their way, you'd end up with La nueva Soviet Union 2.0, with a politburo of atheist transvestites headed by premier Michelle Obama and queen Barry..... ....or something. lol. And yes, our Bill of Rights was the compromise that made the overly centralized Constitution palatable to the Anti-Federalists, so that ratification became possible. They are more than Amendments to anyone who is a (non communist) Constitutional scholar. They are rights guaranteed to withstand the whims and stupidity of a tyrannical majority. And the knowledge of the inevitable "tyranny of the majority" is what made our founding fathers choose a constitutional republic with a bicameral legislature (and electoral college, for that matter) over a democracy to begin with.
