jeffersondem: "This repudiates your contention that Delaware is a Southern state.
Just because it had slaves did not make it a Southern state...
And your contention that Delaware was a “border state” is wrong too."

Apparently there is some disagreement on that subject:


The final three states to ratify the 13th amendment were:

  1. Delaware (1901)
  2. Kentucky (1976)
  3. Mississippi (1995)
So, clearly, Delaware was at least "Border State" if not "Southern".
Finally, I appeal to that ultimate of final authorities, Joe Biden: </sarc>

When Joe Biden is cited, even in jest, it's time to get out and leave the dog with the bone.
