Actually, he said voting for it was perpetuation of racial
entitlement, speaking of the congress-people who were, most recently, unanimous
in extending its life.
On the whole, he’s right about that, though he exaggerates.
But that misses the point.
Two of them, actually.
The 15th Amendment says congress can enforce it by
appropriate legislation.
And this about why congress critters vote for it sheds no
light on whether it is appropriate.
Also, it's is not good that the Supremes get to decide this
matter.
John Marshall did us no favors, creating an judicial veto
that no one and nothing could override.
