Posted by Olog-hai on Sun Feb 15 23:09:41 2009, in response to Re: WSJ interview with Jeb Bush: GOP must be national party, moderate on immigration, push school ch, posted by Easy on Sun Feb 15 23:04:39 2009. Obviously those liberties were not extended to African Americans for decades after the foundingTo many it was, and to many others, it was not; per Amendment X, it was left to the individual states. Abolition was not codified in the Constitution, thus superseding all state laws regarding same, until Lincoln. So it's not so obvious, and you need to look into not only the culture of Europe that was transplanted, but also the culture of Africa thus transplanted (slavery is still normal in Africa today, and it's more abject than at any time in history). How am I racist for pointing that out? You didn't point out the above until this post. You speculated on Lincoln's personal feelings, which is moot in light of his actions, and insulting in the same vein. |
