The Supreme Court’s decision in Scott v Sanford was a primary reason for the ratification of the 14th Amendment and without the 14th Amendment, Barack Hussein Obama II would not be President of the United States.

Speaking of the descendants of slaves, Barack Hussein Obama II, is the descendant of slave owners and slave traders on BOTH sides of his family. He is NOT a descendant of slaves. The citizenship provision of the 14th never applied to him. His dad, Barack Obama, Sr, was a member of the east African Luo Tribe, a tribe which became powerful through the wealth gained in the slave trade with Arabs.

His mother's family line also includes slaveowners.

What irony that the man you and so so many claim as perhaps the most potent demonstration of how America has thrown off slavery has himself only family connections to and a family heritage of slave trading and ownership, and none to having been an oppressed slave! Slavery and slave trading continues in Africa today, and almost certainly Luo Tribe members are still involved in it.

Does the word “slave” appear in the 14th Amendment? I think I must have missed it. Last time I checked it said “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.”

I suppose that you have no respect for George Washington, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, Martin Van Buren, William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, James Polk, Andrew Johnson, or Ulysses S. Grant since they all owned slaves.
