How? The Fourteenth Amendment clearly enjoins the protection of innocent human life and the equal protection of the laws on all the States. Even Judge Blackmun admitted such. How could he not? It’s so obvious even a child could understand it.

Since you are too stupid to do this yourself, I am once again forced to dig up this easily found info for you.

TITLE 1 > CHAPTER 1 > § 8

§ 8. “Person”, “human being”, “child”, and “individual” as including born-alive infant

(a) In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the words “person”, “human being”, “child”, and “individual”, shall include every infant member of the species homo sapiens who is born alive at any stage of development.
(b) As used in this section, the term “born alive”, with respect to a member of the species homo sapiens, means the complete expulsion or extraction from his or her mother of that member, at any stage of development, who after such expulsion or extraction breathes or has a beating heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, regardless of whether the umbilical cord has been cut, and regardless of whether the expulsion or extraction occurs as a result of natural or induced labor, cesarean section, or induced abortion.
(c) Nothing in this section shall be construed to affirm, deny, expand, or contract any legal status or legal right applicable to any member of the species homo sapiens at any point prior to being “born alive” as defined in this section.

THIS is why an Amendment would be needed to extend legal protections to the unborn. This is the RIGHT way to do this.

Your way is how the Commerce Clause is being used to give us the new Healthcare Bill. This is the WRONG way to accomplish this but you are too stuck on your own selfish ideology, and because of your ownership of your political Party, to give it up.
