Except, you can view this in another light. Yes, there's a 1-2 year timescale - but after those 1-2 years we won't necessarily see a SCOTUS judgment. There's nothing to stop complete martial law being imposed in the interim due to a non-specific threat (perhaps Ed Snowden and his super-secret cell of ninja-jihadist-nuclear-biological-ultra-weaponised mega-terrorists), at which point your constitution, its amendments, and all immediate hope go clean out of the window. Then again, if a second civil war does end up playing out, it'll at least make for some interesting history. Which people will hopefully learn from, but won't.
