We do not need that.

All we need is an originalism clarifying moment.

Either the 14th Amendment is a slavery amendment and that’s what they discussed while creating the amendment, or its these other Christmas tree items and Santa is going to deliver BIG on any issue your heart desires.

Perhaps its time to admit that the real reason the civil war was fought between north and south was because of gay marriages and abortions. The huge issues of the day in the 1860s. *sarc*

It wasn't but the disaster at Appomattox established the federal government as the supreme power that can declare homosexual marriage and abortion rights are spelled out in the language of the 14th - and make everyone live with it.

At Appomattox people in our nation lost not only the sovereign rights of their states but the remedies provided for in the Declaration of Independence.
