how many states are required to convene one?
It's a pretty drastic measure and a complete crap shoot. Everything's on the table for revision, unlike the precision of an amendment.
sounds consequential, but perhaps the upside of something this drastic is that it can act as a reset button, similar to the idea of zero-based budgeting in accounting
A convention requires 2/3's of the states, so 34, but changes would have to be ratified by 3/4 which is 38.
