Dear Sterling. The issues you have raised are important, but I must say very few are solved through constitutional amendments.   In 1978,  we did include some general language about how the state could deal with some issues, but those provisions were not necessary to empower anyone.  Yes, OHA was created.  Subsequently, we did not need a Con Con to amend the basic framework of government. We changed the BOE thru a specific amendment on the regular ballot.  I would be interested to learn what specific provisions of our constitution - not laws now - but constitution you would want considered for amendment.  One of the most important factors is that being a small state, lots of outside $$ could dramatically impact the election of Delegates and the agenda.  That outside $$ is more likely to be driven by ultra conservative forces...removing provisions for collective bargaining,  limiting the ability of government to act, privatizing public education, etc.  Mahalo for starting this dialogue
