The very purpose of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution is to protect minority rights against majority voters. Every court decision that strikes down discriminatory legislation, including past Supreme Court decisions, affirming the fundamental rights to marry the person you love, overrules a majority decision.

Der Grundgedanke der Bill of Rights und der Verfassung besteht im Schutz der Minderheitenrechte gegen die Mehrheit der Wähler. Jede Gerichtsentscheidung, die diskriminierende Gesetze unterbindet, einschließlich früherer Entscheidungen des Obersten Gerichtshofs, die die Grundrechte der Ehe der von Ihnen geliebten Person bekräftigen, setzt eine Mehrheitsentscheidung außer Kraft.

Citizens United, I believe, will be regarded by history as one of the worst decisions this Supreme Court - or any Supreme Court - has ever made. It is distorting our political process and corrupting our government.
