I think Wyoming Senate Majority Leader Eli Bebout gets Article V. That federalism, the division of power between the states and the federal government, with the states supreme, has been under attack for 100 years. And that Article V is the means provided to us by the Framers to defend and reassert federalism.
While we were waiting for the Rules Committee to convene, a college intern, assigned by Bebout to research Article V, told me he was amazed at what he’d found. He’d read some of Natelson’s stuff, and realized that Article V was the keystone of the Constitution. This was what he reported to Bebout.
I got a chance to chat a bit with Eli. We’re of an age. A smart guy, and a patriot,
I’m glad he’s on our side.
