wtf you are rewriting history.
Amendments were needed because there were representatives of different states who wanted the implicit guarantees to be explicitly stated because they were very concerned about an overreaching powerful centralized govt which would attempt to take control of their lives.
RCG... do you really need to put the progressive leftist lie spin on everything you say.
How about some truthful reflection.
are you not concerned the federal govt could some day be used keep black people down lower. When the new minority coalitions work their way next to leftist power... which minority groups will be really screwed? With even fewer correct thinking libertarians to protect your rights you people will be screwed like minorities in the third world countries.
You realize concentrated power is the worst thing for the smaller minorities don't you. Well yes your leftists have stop the monolithic power of white evangelicals... because you convinced enough of them to be stupid.
But the next political move will be coalition making.
When the coalitions are made black are going to lose out
As long as the leftists keep helping culture of death clinics aborting black babies by the millions your people will lose out first to Hispanic people and next to the Muslims.
You are preaching for the wrong team.
You need to be preaching for less govt power.
Quote from RCG Trader:
The simple fact that blacks were property at the time of the declaration meant that it was a house built on sand. The very Christian principles it was ostensibly built upon guaranteed it's demise as originally written.
If America were truly a Christian nation, there would be no need for Amendments.
