    You know what else was democratic?

    Jim Crow.

    I don’t want to repeal the 13th-15th amendments, and Mississippi still rejects the 24th amendment.

    We should give democratic power to the states, but only to functional ones, you wouldn’t want to live in Somalia or Afghanistan and call that democracy, in the same vein we shouldn’t accept what passes for democracy in the south, it’s only one step up from apartheid.
