Isn't it time to pass the Equal Rights Amendment?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) October 17th, 2013

Why hasn’t the Solid South ratified the Equal Rights Amendment? We’re just two states short of passing it. In 1776, our nation’s founders penned these lofty words.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

The Founding Fathers signed their intent to implement such a government. Isn’t it time, almost 240 years after setting those soaring thoughts to paper and signing their intent to implement them, that we live up to the spirit of that founding document? Watch this brief video and see if you agree it’s time to push the Neanderthals among us into the 21st century.
