"Beyond winners & losers, there is a field.... I'll meet you there" 
I believe that the person who said this quote was Rumi, a famous poet. This quote could relate to this class in many ways.

How it can relate to the class is, everyone might have different approaches to somethings, but at the end we all end up at the same place and achieve our goals together.

While researching, I have a found a couple of articles that show some states trying to  change their constitution. The state that I saw that was the most recent would probably be Tennessee. The sate of Tennessee is calling for a Article V, which is trying to get their constitution altered. They are trying to have an Article V resolution so a convention could appear. Researching some more I also noticed that the resolution did indeed happen and it went to an effect already.
