[quote=Anonymous]"Perfect demonstration of federalism of convenience. You just chose to take power away from the states, not because of what is contained in the constitution but because you think that a farfetched hypothetical outcome is distasteful to you" Perhaps, yes. I do choose to take away a state's power to limit a fundamental right such as marriage. I believe in this case the individual's right trumps that of the state. All that said, it doesn't matter. Constitutional precedent re: marriage has already been established under due process clause and the equal protection clause--e.g., the ban on interracial marriage in states was deemed unconstitutional under these clauses. So your argument is moot. [/quote]
