We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Keep reading!! Today, Georgia became the first state to call for an Article V convention. Other states are expected to follow suit.

(From the Declaration of Independence, continued) In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
