The most important thing to remember is that the US Supreme Court can and has made major errors of judgement. Seven Justices stated that Seperate But Equal was valid and the Law of the Land. It required 58 years for the Court to over rule its own decision in Brown vs Board of Education, but the damage that it had caused will require several more generations to correct.
