Chief Justice Taney? What “supreme court” are we talking about here? A clinker or two like this case and the Dred Scott decision can really mess up a justice's legacy . Poor old Roger Taney , sometimes history makes you look bad .

Too true. IIRC, in Dred Scott Taney held that a Negro couldn't be a citizen. Cite him on qualifications for citizenship at your own risk.
