The Constitution gives two ways to propose an amendment. Only one has ever been used.
Article V doesn’t say. Congress never has.
“There is no effective way to limit or muzzle the actions of a constitutional Convention.”
“Due to the possibility of a runaway convention and the other uncertainties, state legislatures are exceedingly unlikely to apply.”
Write the rules before anyone knows the amendment.
Then they can’t be rigged for one.
