    So your contention is that the meanings of the phrase “congress shall have power to enforce” are:

    1. this constitutional amendment “may only be enforced by congress and not by anyone else” even though this is not stated in the Constitution.

    2. “needs to be enforced by congress”, even though this is not stated in the Constitution.

    3. “this power is explicitly delegated to Congress”, even though this is an implicit permission rather than an explicit designation?

    You’ll want to reference what is written and is not, in the Constitution, rather than your imagining of my assumptions.
