[Non-Sequitur]

DE,KY,MD,MO and (some would argue) NE...were considered northern states.

Nobody who knew that Nebraska didn't even become a state until 1867 would argue that.

once more (SIGH!), NE's land was there for many millennia & NE was a "well-settled" US TERRITORY, where "life indenture without PAY" was LAWFUL.

NE was NOT on another planet.

sorry, but as usual, you are DESPERATELY trying to make something out of NOTHING. and once more, you FAIL to convince anyone.
