Sabato to Hold New "Constitutional Convention"

A More Perfect Constitution: 23 Proposals to Revitalize Our Constitution and Make America a Fairer CountryWith the assistance of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, 1996 presidential nominee Bob Dole and 1984 vice presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro, University of Virginia professor Larry Sabato is holding a mock Constitutional convention later this month, the Examiner reports.

It's all designed around the premise of his new book, A More Perfect Constitution, in which "the oft-quoted Sabato puts forth 23 proposals to improve the Constitution, and suggests that Congress and the states should set about convening a convention sooner rather than later."

Said Sabato: “This is my career book. I’ve been thinking about it since the 1970s. I’ve been writing it for five years. Maybe because I live in a house designed by Thomas Jefferson on the U.Va. campus."
