Overthrowing Congress: a timeline for Term limits- to defeat congress

Term limits could be in place in 24 months.  It probably cannot happen quicker, but beginning the process will begin the cure for congress.  It will also start the discussion of alternatives in Congress.

1) The first step is to come up with a congressional reform amendment.  This will be set out in a later blog, but if you're in a hurry, order the book below.

2) The number of terms will be based on the average terms served by congressmen in the first 25 congresses averaged together.  Some will have served only a single term, some will have served several, but this gives the same terms that were effectively envisioned by founding fathers.  It may be changed later, but it's a good start.

3)  The next step is to set teams up to put this on the ballots of all the states so that the state legislatures and governors will have to either sign on or fight it.  This could be done within 12 months so that all 50 states will have some group.  Want to join?  Friend world war c: https://www.facebook.com/gmfpc

4) Within 24 months it could be possible to call a constitutional convention, but it might take years.  Too slow?  Start now it will happen quicker.

The Constitution provides that an amendment may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the State legislatures. None of the 27 amendments to the Constitution have been proposed by constitutional convention. The Congress proposes an amendment in the form of a joint resolution. Since the President does not have a constitutional role in the amendment process, the joint resolution does not go to the White House for signature or approval. The original document is forwarded directly to NARA's Office of the Federal Register (OFR) for processing and publication. The OFR adds legislative history notes to the joint resolution and publishes it in slip law format. The OFR also assembles an information package for the States which includes formal "red-line" copies of the joint resolution, copies of the joint resolution in slip law format, and the statutory procedure for ratification under 1 U.S.C. 106b.
