Examples of fourteenth in a Sentence

1. Nicole Neily:

We have spent decades teaching our kids that racial segregation was and will always be wrong. We will not tolerate a return to segregation in 2022.

But when we gave up on trying to win the support of African-Americans, we lost our moral legitimacy as the party of Lincoln.
