Citizens of the United States,

Imagine that you are back in school and you have to do a group project. The deadline was yesterday, and not only have you not submitted anything, you haven’t even met up with your group to begin discussing the project. Also, your life, freedom, and happiness on getting a good grade on this project.

Then, out of the blue, the laziest guy in your group sends out a group text and with a rough draft he made. It’s not perfect. To be honest, it’s not even an A; but that B/B+ looks infinitely better than a big, fat, red zero. He then says we should meet up tonight and finalize the draft before submitting it tomorrow, letting the smartest kids do most of the work.

This, of course, is a metaphor for the reality we exist in. I am the lazy guy who made a rough draft to submit, the group is all 350 million Americans, and the project? Well the project is drafting a new Constitution for the American People. We do not want to add another amendment or convene an Article V convention of states, we need a whole new document, one tailor made for the chaos and complexity of the modern age. Nothing lasts forever, and constitutions are no exception to this rule. Our Constitution has stood watch for almost two and a half centuries, far exceeding the expectations of its creators, it has earned the dignity of an honorable discharge.

The goal of the USAv3 movement is not to make our Union great again, the goal is to make our Union greater than ever. A digital Constitutional Convention would become our generation’s greatest achievement, restore our Republic, and create the most democratic Constitution in the world. So let’s do that. Let’s close this dark chapter in our history and begin a new one: the American Renaissance.

“I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made... institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.”
Thomas Jefferson
