re: #66 Dark_Falcon

‘Original Intent’ means the original intent of those parts of the Constitution that are currently in force. The parts of the original document that dealt with slavery were superseded by the 13th Amendment and then the 14th and 15th Amendments extended civil rights to all races. So Original Intent on civil rights matters now means “The intent of the Founders as modified by the framers of the Reconstruction Amendments”.

Is there any evidence that the people who wrote and passed the 14th Amendment supported interracial marriage?
