Interesting that what has not been mentioned in this thread today is the Hartford Convention. The constitutional amendments proposed there involved (from the wiki): - Prohibiting any trade embargo lasting over 60 days; - Requiring a two-thirds Congressional majority for declaration of offensive war, admission of a new state, or interdiction of foreign commerce; - Removing the three-fifths representation advantage of the South; - Limiting future presidents to one term; - Requiring each president to be from a different state than his predecessor. (This provision was aimed directly at the dominance of Virginia in the presidency since 1800). It would be an interesting country had this come to pass. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartford_Convention https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartford_Convention
