Levin is NOT calling for a Constitutional Convention. They are two totally different things. The provision for the states to gather together to amend the constitution was specifically added to Article Five because the founders foresaw the events that we are facing today.

Now is not only the time for an Article Five Convention of the states, it may be the last time for one before all power is wrested from the states.
