> It's there because without it, as the fundamental working of the Constitution, without it Congress has no way to make sure states follow it

Correct. Same thing here. Congress is to make sure that states follow it. So far Congress has chosen not to.

>States should be able to enforce it. But Congress should also be able to create different rules that supersede state laws on that topic.

Should and are are different things. By your logic the president should have the power to enforce it as well.

>For example, take the 15th amendment. It protects the right to vote regardless of race or color. Does that protection just not exist if Section 2 (the enforcement clause) didn't exist? Does that protection not exist if Congress decides not to pass any legislation enforcing it? What about the 13th? Is slavery allowed if Congress doesn't pass any legislation?

Yes that protection does not exist. Its like any other law. If a law cannot be enforced then what is the point in having it. Congress has the exclusive right to enforce the amendment. Why specifically give Congress the power if they didnt mean it to be exclusive? They could have easily written it to say the states have power to enforce just like the 18th amendment.

>Why then, is the 14th treated differently? Why are insurrectionists allowed to hold office unless Congress passes legislation?

Because Colorado bars Trump then Mississippi turns around and bars Biden. You are leaving it up to the states to determine insurrection. Is that really what you want?
