  Terry vs. Ohio
We have support for this case from Lindsay and Stefan. We are likely to review it tonight and discuss it tomorrow. Please weigh in if you have any perspective on this question.
 
Comments:
This is a repeat of a comment below that is probably more appropriate here:

I agree that Terry is interesting.

If you want a narrower issue/to access the issues of racially-motivated stops, you could also consider the Whren and Atwater decisions. Here are some solvency cites for revisiting those decisions. It's been a year, so I don't really remember if they advocate "overturn." I can email someone the cards if you're really interested (my HS camp lab worked on this aff).

Jonathan R. DeFosse, JD Candidate, “Asian Americans, Racial Profiling, and National Security,” GEORGE WASHINGTON LAW REVIEW v. 70, February 2002, p. 211.

Sean P. Trende, “Why Modest Proposals Offer the Best Solution for Combating Racial Profiling,” DUKE LAW JOURNAL v. 50, October 2000, p. 367-368.

Elizabeth C. Tucker, JD Candidate, Dickinson School of Law, Penn State, “Has the Supreme Court Taken a Wrong Turn? An Analysis of the Supreme Court’s Decision in Atwater v. City of Lago Vista,” DICKINSON LAW REVIEW v. 107, Winter 2003, p. 696-697.

Tracey Maclin, Professor, Law, Boston University, “The Fourth Amendment on the Freeway,” RUTGERS RACE & THE LAW REVIEW v. 3, 2001, p. 188-189.

David A. Harris, Balk Professor of Law and Values, University of Toledo, “When Success Breeds Attack: The Coming Backlash Against Racial Profiling Studies,” MICHIGAN JOURNAL OF RACE & LAW v. 6, Spring 2001, p. 261-262.

Something else to consider is that there is pretty good solvency evidence for a 'congress cp.'

David A. Harris, Professor, Law and Values, University of Toledo, Testimony before Senate Judiciary Committee, Constitution, Federalism and Property Rights Committee, FEDERAL DOCUMENT CLEARING HOUSE TESTIMONY, August 1, 2002, npg.

Robert L. Wilkins, attorney, Testimony before House Government Reform Committee, FEDERAL DOCUMENT CLEARING HOUSE CONGRESSIONAL TESTIMONY, July 19, 2001, npg.

Jon Corzine, U.S. Senator, New Jersey, Testimony before Senate Judiciary Committee, Constitution, Federalism and Property Rights Subcommittee, FEDERAL DOCUMENT CLEARING HOUSE CONGRESSIONAL TESTIMONY, July 1, 2001, npg.
 
I always thought that Whren was a more legally interesting and more suspect case than Terry. Thats really really old gut feelings from my senior year in hs.
