The lesson here, for Rightists, is simply another reminder that nothing has corrupted the Constitution more than the Commerce Clause and Civil-Rights legislation. Second place for Constitutional corruption goes to the 14th Amendment. Since Plessy v Ferguson, the Sup Ct, Congress, and the Executive have conspired to re-write the Constitution with the declared purpose of dealing with our 'race problem'. Because they do not understand the race problem, their efforts are counter-productive. The race-problem is simply a phrase to describe what happens any time more than one race of humans share the same territory. From Brazil to Boston, race is not always the number-one issue, but it often is, and it never disappears from the top-10 list.
