The ACLU is our nation?s guardian of liberty. We work daily in courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to every person in this country by the Constitution and laws of the United States. Our job is to conserve America?s original civic values - the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
Majority power is limited by the Constitution?s Bill of Rights, which consists of the original ten amendments ratified in 1791, plus the three post-Civil War amendments (the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth) and the Nineteenth Amendment (women?s suffrage), adopted in 1920.
Sounds like they're talking about American's to me? Who else did you have in mind?
