The people who came before me supported slavery Slavery was an accepted given most everywhere at the time. There was a difference where northern European attitudes prevailed. They had stopped enslaving their own and bought blacks, thinking they were an inferior people. Within the context of the time, evidence might have been seen as supporting that belief. Burgeoning attitudes spreading from the British Isles about the natural rights of man, in conjunction with Christian influence, were laying a foundation for abolition. Here, there would have been no union if slavery was outlawed in the late eighteenth century. Nonetheless our founders laid the foundation to painfully rid this nation of that plague as soon as possible. Not true through most of the world then, even now in some places. Kenneth, if you have young you care about you really ought STFU and never vote again. Probably too late for you to acquire understanding.
