http://ttokarnak.home.att.net/14AEActs.htmlNote:

The total word count of the four Acts was 8,149 words. They are completely devoid of any language to support the claim that the Fourteenth Amendment was intended to protect corporations, mandate integrated schools, or protect abortion (or "privacy") rights, or "gender equity." A word search of the four Acts found no instance where either of the words "corporation" or "corporations" were used. The words "person" or "persons" were found a total of 166 times. A short comment on each Act is given just below followed by the complete text of the four Acts.

This is supposed to prove what, exactly? Of course abortion isn't mentioned, it wasn't an issue then. Nobody in Congress in the 1860's or 70's ever dreamed that anybody would seriously advocate legalizing it. By the same logic you're using, the government could search people's computer files at will without violating the 4th amendment because it doesn't mention computers, only "papers."

Make me an argument showing how abortion isn't a state (by consent) depriving a person of life without due process of law which doesn't fall back on the pro-infanticide crowd's "the unborn fetus isn't a person" canard. I'm still waiting.

Meanwhile, what the references to corporations have to do with this topic is beyond me.
