Thanks for giving this issue radio time. I agree that it is not appropriate to amend the US Constitution for just anything. I also think that the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is a real threat to parenting in America as we know it. Just as an example there is a clause in it about children having a right of association. Proponents say that this is to help eliminate prejudice in the next generation. But what if your daughter starts hanging out with a bunch of cultists. Parents would no longer have the right to say no, not under my roof. Daughter, you are not hanging out with those people. Anyway, like I said thanks for giving this air time.

Betsy, this show was a real eye-opener. As a resident of Israel, I fully appreciate the dangers of countries abdicating their sovereignty in favor of international organizations. This holds true particularly of organizations like the UN whose primary purpose seems to have degenerated into pursuing goals diametrically opposed to those of the US (to say nothing of Israel). Americans need to appreciate the unique nature of American law, and if a constitutional ammendment is the only means of protecting American sovereignty, then so be it.
