If we didn't reconsider things that had "never in the history of institutionalized American [fill in the blank]" been done, our constitution would still read:
Quote:
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.

(And, I'm not equating gay marriage with civil rights any more than to show a correlation in terms of the concepts.)
