9. And women and blacks weren't supposed to vote. |

Your problem is you are trying to divine intent, and hold up that intent as the unwavering standard no matter how much the circumstances change.
What instead is accurate - and more troubling - is that the Constitution has been gutted of the checks and balances the founders established, and which the United States has not legally amended to be altered.
