SFP... why did they exclude Indians who were not taxed?

SO - in my far-out hypothetical, you are perfectly at ease with Democrats a century from now teleporting a million people from state to state just ahead of the census taker arrival and therefore give the Democrats 50 million excess population to enhance their congressional power.
Do you want to let the DEMs have the power to overrule the 2A with an EO when they win the Presidency next time?

IIRC, it was a delineation of citizenship/status. That means they were living on a reservation within a state.

Yep... which is why non citizens need to be removed from appropriations.

The Dems will fight this.

If this is true, why did they only address one group of non-citizens?

I'd reckon because that was the pressing matter in the moment. Now... we have the same matter but different flavor.

Why would you deduce universal applicability when the language was decisively specific to one group?

That's why there is an amendment process.

Because I believe it IS applicable and I'm not alone in this.

Based on what language of the Constitution?

I'm just agreeing with you!

Good.
Election security should be one of the most important issues before 2026, including states not getting bloated representation.

You're agreeing with me only for Indians on the res, though.
My question was this

Key word: universal
What language denotes universal application of your belief?
The Indian language does the opposite.

Wrong.
Reservation Feathers may have been the language outcome, but even you acknowledged the driving purpose.
The driving purpose is the same now.

Purpose only for Indians.
And the "language outcome" is imperative with a written Constitution.

Possibly, but you need textual support in the document itself.
You only have textual support for Indians on the res.

We're indians counted not on a rez?

They were not, because they were the one group specifically excluded.
That implies there are no other exclusions.

Sure. The larger point remains.
