God given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? How were slaves given liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Their were also Black slave owners!

Only about 5% of the people in the South actually had slaves .

During the far majority of the many years of slavery on this continent it existed with the approval and encouragement of the British Monarchy .
Do the math . We were not even a Nation until 1789 . The Federal Gvt was very weak by design until Lincoln . The States were superior to the Federal Gvt .
The Fed Gvt was still fighting off the Brits until 1814 . Yes it took another 51 years for slavery to end which was sad but the Fed Gvt had very limited power to do anything .

At the time, NOBODY considered blacks as people. Therefore, the rights of people did not apply. They were seen as draft animals, chattel.

The 3/5ths ruling was to limit the impact of slaves on Congressional representation, it was political. Slaves gave the south "too many" representatives due to the slave population. It wasn't for the census.

So, at least in theory, all lingering prejudices aside, almost everyone is equal in front of a court.
Except, to paraphrase Orwell, --All animals are created equal, only some Clintons are more equal than others
Africans, the one's who sold "us" the slaves, STILL practice slavery, why does nobody mention that?

The slaves were "released" for one reason and one reason only...mechanization. Machinery replaced the slaves, tractors could do the work of 100 men. it wasn't altruism or philanthropy that freed the slaves, it was politics backed up by their mechanized replacements waiting in the wings.

People in comas should be able to vote by proxy --- anyone can be their proxy -- no ID required
Anyone who is a citizen of a foreign country but has at one time visited the US as a Tourist or has thought that they might someday wish to visit the US should be able to Vote via the Internet or by Proxy .
There is no need to prove that any person has the Proxy of another !
All " Trans " people should be able to vote at least twice --- one as a man and once as a woman .

The Real CNM !

If voting mattered, they wouldn't let anyone do it, since it doesn't matter, they'll let anyone do it. It does nothing but make you feel good about getting ripped off.

Slavery wasn't popular in the north because the industries were different. In the north you had more of a skilled industrial society, it didn't lend itself well to mindless idiot slaves who couldn't do...well much of anything other than lifting and carrying. The south was a different story and why it had many more slaves, it was agrarian, it relied on slaves to work the vast fields.

In the north slaves were seen as unfair competition, workers who didn't get paid kept the cost of production down. Other business owners didn't want the unfair competition. And here you thought the slave/free state arguments were about human rights and equality...you were wrong.

The slavery issue was a political issue. Lincoln used it to seize state power. Not unlike Constantine using Christianity.

The FIRST slave owner in America was a black man from Virginia. For some reason, this seems to be kept a secret.

Not that this relates to the thread.
