Re: Prohibition

That's the point; the Majority was pretty Tyrannical and inflicted Prohibition onto everyone until a later Majority got Tyrannical and repealed it. The majority is still being tyrannical as far as Presidential term limits; there were plenty of people who felt that Bill Clinton should have been able to run again just as there are plenty of people who feel George W. Bush should be able to run again; both are subject to the Tyranny of the Majority.

And thanks for the info on amending the State Constitution; I get confused because, let's face it, how often are either one changed?
