Excellent! Hopefully you will connect with the fact that there is nothing in the Constitution preventing Congress from establishing a definition of when life begins.

We’re having this discussion because flag-waving patriots actually didn’t know enough about the Constitution, particularly the Founding States’ division of federal and state powers evidenced by 10A, to remedy the situation when activist justices first legalized abortion. Justices needed to be impeached, imo, for ignoring Bingham’s clarification of how 14A was intended to work when the Supreme Court legalized abortion. But evidently everybody was asleep at the wheel.

Also, although I’m not really blaming Bingham, I regret that Bingham didn’t forsee major problems with respect to his inclusion of the word “born” in the language of Section 1 of 14A and the subsequent legalization of abortion in the next century. It arguably makes Sen. Paul’s proposed legislation look like a backdoor remedy for effectively overturning Roe v. Wade.

And I’m guessing that the prospects for a RINO-controlled HoR and liberal Senate and Oval Office actually passing his bill are next to nothing. But even if it predictably fails, it makes Sen. Paul look to good to conservatives in the long run.
