Who am I to think that you could understand the 10th Amendment?

Y’all can beg at the door of the High Court to “protect” your rights if one thinks he must

There has been controversey about the meaning of the Bill of Rights from the beginning and the Marshall Court ruled that states were not meant to be prohibited by them.
Nor did the USSC find a right to abortion within the BoR. It merely extended the meaning of privacy to a medical decision made by a woman and her doctor. Roe was and is bad law, IMO, and should not have infringed upon state laws regarding abortion.
Your interpretation of the meaning of Kelo is almost incorrect.
The 10th amendment has had virtually no impact on the development of constitutional law. It looks like it was thrown in as a sop to the anti-federalists and is nothing more than a rhetorical device with little use. Since the Constitution does not impower the gov. to impinge on those rights in any case it was unnecessary. But it is a great stick for an ideolog to whack with.
RAT is DemocRAT which it does not sound like you are.
Actually one of the chief impetus to the continued growth of government power is the protection of individual rights.
Since it is a vague term some people have tried to stuff all manner of things into it. Obammie is about to tell us about a “right” to health care. Then we have Human Rights, Animal Rights, all manner of rights guaranteed to multiply the fedgov.
