Here is an example:

Proposed Amendment:

SECTION 1: In order to fully secure our homeland the following proposal shall be made

SECTION 2: The following articles of amendment to the Constitution of the United States are hereby repealed:
Articles 1 through 9
Article 24

SECTION 3: This article shall be inoperative, unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission.


If we start doing this, we can end up scrapping the whole constitution one article at a time. I for one do not want to slide down that slope.
