Amendment 17 Senatorial elections
Amendment 18 Prohibition of liquor
Amendment 19 Women's suffrage
Amendment 20 Terms of office
Amendment 21 Repeal of Prohibition
Amendment 22 Term Limits for the Presidency
Amendment 23 Washington, D.C., suffrage
Amendment 24 Abolition of poll taxes
Amendment 25 Presidential succession
Amendment 26 18-year-old suffrage
Amendment 27 Congressional pay raises
So pretty much bring back slavery and make sure no one not male and white and old can vote, and no more Presidential term limits.

(1,660 posts)Was just racist code for make blacks slaves again and things were better before the civil war. We are dealing with a neoconfederate who was pandering to a neoconfederate base on that show. A lot of white people in the south would love to enslave blacks again and believe all their problems begin and end with black people and northern agitators.
