Keith,boats before we all get too misty-eyed about the PCA. From what I've read was one of the most disgraceful plieces of legislation ever passed by congress which if you think about it is really saying quite a lotafter seeing some of the stuff that has come out of that place.
From what I've read (18 USC1385) PCA was passed as part of the corrupt bargain that allowed Rutherford B. Hayes to steal the 1876 election from Samuel Tilden,( and guess what Flordia WAS one of the disputed states they couldn't even get it right back then)it was to put a stop to the reconstruction and guaranteed the triumph of the violent counter-revolution.it just a though.
