[Las Vegas Ron]

Regulated, at the time, meant trained. Not regulated, in today’s term.

Yep, kind of like NBC.

Like the Minor v Happersett decision read, we must go back to the nomenclature of the time.

But it only applies selectively here for some reason.

[Vermont Lt]

It is not selective at all.

You must take into the consideration of the vernacular— the accepted, specific speech of the day.

Take for example the West Side Story song, “I feel pretty.” It has a line that states the singer is pretty, and witty, and gay. In today context, that would seem odd. In the context of the time, it makes perfect sense.

We do not update our language in the constitution. We must understand the meaning of words within their context.
