What reason and evidence does the excerpt use to support its argument that the court had ruled incorrectly
in the Brown case?
The original Constitution does not mention education
Neither does the 14th Amendment nor any other
amendment. The debates preceding the submission of the
14th Amendment clearly show that there was no intent
that it should affect the system of education maintained
by the States...
We reaffirm our reliance on the Constitution as the
fundamental law of the land.
We decry the Supreme Court's encroachment on the
rights reserved to the States and to the people, contrary
to established law, and to the Constitution
-Southern Manifesto (1956)

The 14th Amendment prohibits the court from ruling
on matters better left to states,

the court ruled incorrectly.
