I'm actually fairly certain that nothing short of a States Constitutional Convention will fix this. Tremble in your boots if that happens however. Every criminally insane sociopathic control freak will be crawling out of the woodwork to be a part of it.

x-spurt:
"Only recently have we heard much about black Revolution patriots.
Not saying they did not exist with much frequency, I would just like more proof from that period." African-Americans were deeply involved in the American Revolution from Day One, as the death of Crispus Attucks during the Boston Massacre in 1770 illustrates.
Yes, the Brits did promise freedom to blacks who served them, and some blacks did, just as many white loyalists also served the Brits.
But the far larger number -- about 9,000 total, or 20% of the northern Continental Army -- served the American cause.
Indeed, some historians say that freed blacks enlisted in larger percentages than white Americans.
"In December 1775, Washington wrote a letter to Colonel Henry Lee... stating that success in the war would come to whatever side could arm the blacks the fastest..."At the Siege of Yorktown in 1781, Baron Closen, a German officer in the French Royal Deux-Ponts Regiment, estimated the American army to be about one quarter black.[9]"
These African-Americans served in integrated units, the last time that would happen until President Truman again desegregated the military in 1948.
