I am confused by your post. Are you saying it wouldnt have been better for our country if the founding fathers had been able to get rid of slavery, or put in a definitive time frame for its ending, when they wrote the constitution?
If my question confused you, wait until you read the exculpatory explanation of slavery being enshrined into the United States Constitution by some guy in post 1376.
Said he: “ . . . from what Ive read of the constitutional convention we would have lost Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina if the hardline anti-slavery founders had pushed the issue. And the founders were more concerned about a fractured America fighting amongst itself or being influenced or taken over by foreign powers. So they kicked the can down the road.”
