re: #309 Mich-again
Through the interstate commerce clause, the Feds have already grabbed all sorts of power already. I am a bit surprised that there hasn’t been a push to commonize marriage requirements (and allow for Gay marriage) under that legal umbrella. Boom, done.
Because there will never be a Constitutional amendment approved by 38 States that goes along with it. Not in the foreseeable future anyway.
Without the interstate commerce clause, imagine what a mess our economy would be. 8-)
The path I see gay marriuage taking is through the SCOTUS, not an amendment.
