re: #269 CommonCents

You would be hard pressed to find anywhere, in anyone’s comments that say only US citizens have civil rights. He was pointing out that the documents in question apply to US Citizens and persons WITHIN our states and territories. There are international treaties that cover civil rights outside of that.

What if the the US were somehow involved in a treaty that nullified part of the Constitution or its amendments? How many people would start claiming that the Constitution takes precedence?
