Does the U.S. Constitution need an update? Some Ohio Republicans think so. Members of the Ohio House are pushing for a Convention of States. It’s part a national push among conservatives to restrict the government's power and reduce federal debt.
But some political analysts also say it could pave the way for the president to run for a third term.
On Cincinnati Edition, we discuss the nationwide and state efforts to amend the Constitution.
