If you're basing your whole argument on one case while ignoring the vast amounts of facts I have given you, then you're a tried and true big government cheerleader.

Sorry to say this again, but the 14th amendment is still an abomination to limited government minded people. It undermined the founders intent for the balance of power between states and the federal government. But people like you don't seem to care. If someone disagrees you say things like "Raoul Berger is full of it." without any sort of facts to back up the ad hominem attacks. The Bill of Rights does not protect the fundamental rights of citizens in the way you think it does. What their intention was, was to restrain the FEDERAL government from doing what it is doing today. The fundamental rights of citizens are protected by the states and the citizens themselves. If you can't grasp that issue, then there is no hope for you. You're lost among the big government defenders such as Ted Kennedy and John Kerry.

Adios.

Plessy vs Ferguson illustrates your big govm't and it's cheerleaders.

Right. Plessy vs Ferguson. " If you can't grasp that issue, then there is no hope for you.
