However, the author fails to acknowledge historical evidence that the government has been overreaching for centuries, not just in the past 11 months. Furthermore, the claim that the Founders did not fear a runaway convention is incorrect. Many Founders, including James Madison, warned against another convention due to the dangers of ignoring predetermined limits and rewriting the Constitution. COS is ignoring this evidence in their pursuit of a convention that could potentially annihilate the Constitution.
