My comment was in regard to the present-day political status of the issue. With that in mind...

In the US, women's suffrage and slavery do not ever need to be qualified by phrases like this. So really, the very way in which you had to phrase that sentence invalidates the point you're trying to make.

The most likely future political status of the issue is not the same as the present-day political status.

You do have to wait in order for it to be law. That's democracy.
