1. Fortunately, there was no DADT law involving blacks in the military.
But we've been over this ground a brazilian times.

7. Congress passing a law enforcing segregation.
As opposed to segregation being a simple institution which could be undone by executive order.

2. did Truman say that 5 or 6 months into his presidency?
Hopefully, Obama doesn't drop nuclear weapons on our enemies. your comparison is weak and fraught with issues.

3. Yep. I think the media debacle in Chicago and later, under Carter,
changed politics on our side forever and not in a good way.

8. Do you have a link for that quote?
Because I'm pretty sure he told the military to review the changes that will be needed when DADT is repealed.
