I think Texas's law applied only to Blacks marrying non-Blacks. But I'm too lazy to look up the exact wording.

miscegenation laws typically applied to any non-white minority trying to marry a white person, which was the main reason why it was stuck down (it wasn't "separate but equal" since other races could marry each other).

Wow, southern whites had a nice little fascist police state going there. No wonder they're pissed since the 60s.

Don't worry, the powerful southerners learned they already had all the tools they need without needing the overly racist ones.

And the poor white remains on the caboose of the train but it ain’t him to blame

And in the case of the Texas law, it prevented marriage between blacks and non-blacks (aka whites) and allowed the marriage of Anglos and Mexicans.

Edit: yeah Blacks and Filipinos couldn't marry whites in Texas: http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/engl_258/Lecture%20Notes/american_antimiscegenation.htm

Now he has banned Univision from using his golf course. :munch:

quote:

In the letter, Trump writes to Falco, "Please be advised that under no circumstances is any officer or representative of Univision allowed to use Trump National Doral, Miami—its golf courses or any of its facilities. Also, please immediately stop work and close the gate which is being constructed between our respective properties. If this is not done within one week, we will close it."

In a post-script, Trump added: "Please congratulate your Mexican Government officials for having made such outstanding trade deals with the United States. However, inform them that should I become President, those days are over. We are bringing jobs back to the U.S. Also, a meaningful border will be immediately created, not the laughingstock that currently exists."

What was fun was Dubya campaigning in 2004 that he would ban same-sex marriage whike Cheney would try to avoid the question because his daughter is a lesbian.

Cheney outright broke ranks and publically supported gay marriage and opposed Bush's proposed constitutional amendment during the 2004 campaign. He still said it should be up to individual states but I think your characterization is unfair.

"Kids I am running for president" Jindal has a solution to Supreme Court


Get rid of it

quote:


Louisiana Gov, Bobby Jindal (R) on Friday suggested doing away with the Supreme Court during a speech in Iowa that followed the court's historic ruling on same-sex marriage.

"The Supreme Court is completely out of control, making laws on their own, and has become a public opinion poll instead of a judicial body," he told the crowd, as quoted by The Advocate newspaper. "If we want to save some money lets just get rid of the court."

It seems like this week the Supreme Court has really put republicans in a tough spot.

Jeb seems to be the only one who put out a response that's not going to completely gently caress him.

I mean, what the gently caress are they supposed to do? We already know people like Huckabee and Santorum will never be the nominee but even people in these top slots seem still hosed.

You're going to have a pissed off conservative base that demands nothing less than full loyalty to every point, but that's not going to win you moderate votes.

However, the candidates start trying to appeal more moderate, they're base is going to feel hosed over and they'll come across as flip-floppy (billday.jpg) and not strong for conservatives or moderates.

It just feels that conservatives are proper hosed right now.

Not even then. Because the convention in the 1700s was convened to write the constitution, it wasn't convened under Article V (because it didn't exist.) There has never been an Article V
Convention.

Its a race to the bottom.

No, seriously the only people who are going to get behind this are the ones who've voted GOP for 40+ years. Anyone with the slightest liberal tendency is going to look at them as a "holy gently caress what is wrong with these people"

I cannot wait for the debates when this comes up, and the candidates have to backtrack or fully commit to abolishing the Supreme Court.

This alternative is right out of the Mark Levin book and Levin was touting it yesterday on his radio show. You have to marvel at the hypocrisy of people who claim that they love the Constitution so much that they have to write a new one to save the old one.

No, the concept of a national convention is totally in the Constitution, and theoretically is an option for amendment proposition. It's just never ever ever even once been used in the history of the U.S..

Nah, a win is still the likely outcome but the right is gonna pick Jeb or Marco, someone who appeals to moderates without looking like a mildly retarded door to door seed salesman (sorry Scott :smith:) and they'll put up a decent fight. Hillary is real bad at campaigning.

The ACA ruling was pretty beneficial to their campaigns because it means they can still make a plank of their platforms shouting over each other to see who hates Obamacare the most. If the subsidies got struck down the republicans would have gotten blamed, and they'd have to start figuring out the "replace" part of "repeal and replace."

Gay marriage is harder, as they all now have to throw in behind an increasingly unpopular position. The smarter ones will dog whistle with "state's rights" and "religious freedom," but it's still an uphill battle.
