In that case on this issue, we stand apart. This administration has failed, by choice, to enforce the laws they do not like. They have ignored them, replaced them, sued, and sidestepped them. The coequal branches of power have failed to pursue the matter because they are too concerned about their own political hides. And the USSC save precious few, have become a collection of activists. If the lawmakers, interpreters and executive have thusly demonstrated disregard for the law as it is, what ever would make you think that they will adhere to a bunch of new ones?

Any amendments passed at a Convention of States and ratified as required by the Constitution would become just as valid as any other part of the Constitution, as amended through the regular amendment process. The Supreme Court does not have the power to set aside any part of the Constitution, including any of its amendments. I do not see your point. Of course, liberal activists might rule wrongly on any part of the Constitution, as they have in the past. That does not mean that as a country we should just give up on the notion of being a constitutional republic.
