Chuck Michaelis is Executive Director of Camp American (www.campamerican.com/) and Vice-chairman of the Institute for Principled Policy (www.principledpolicy.com/), an Ohio-based public policy think tank.

The Constitution does not guarantee any state will be represented at a Con Con.
To paraphrase Chief Justice Warren Burger's admonition, NOBODY TELLS A CON CON WHAT TO DO!
