In paragraph two, sentence two, the author writes the following: "So, I doubt not, it will continue to be for all time if it remains true to its great heritage and holds fast to the principles of constitutional liberty." 

What does he mean by "it"?

1. African-Americans
2. The Supreme Court of the United States
3. American Indians
4. The white race
5. Women

If you read backward and follow the meaning, then it becomes clear from paragraph two, sentence one that he is talking about "The white race."
