We still haven't fixed things caused by putting chattel slavery into the Constitution almost 150 years after a civil war.

Well, that's why I wrote "not impossible" rather than "likely"...

These things can be fixed even though it's difficult. Sometimes the pressure just boils over. Americans are a lot more defeatist about their politics than in many other democratic countries.

Hell, we deliberately left it in.
