If those that created our constitution also owned slaves, and therefore don’t deserve our respect, it stands to reason that their sensibilities can not be trusted and, therefore, the constitution is so seriously flawed as to be replaced.

I believe that is where they are going with this. Don’t believe me? Did you think, 20 years ago, that many of the issues today that are being pursued with a frenzy would ever even be issues at all? How about ten years ago? How about five?

How about 2?

It is happening VERY fast. Hence my tag line.

By that logic, we should abolish the United States of America. Richard Henry Lee of Virginia made the motion for independence at the second continental Congress. His brother's grandson was Robert E. Lee. And Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence.

Clearly, it was southern slave-owners who founded the country. This cannot be allowed to stand.
