The Legend of the Proslavery Constitution

It is called The Constitution.

It is always the Constitution.
Add ten amendments and it still the Constitution.
Add seventeenth more amendments and it is still the Constitution.

At any given time there is only One Constitution.

Garrison and some other Abolitionists considered the Constitution to be pro-slavery and they condemned it. Garrison once burned a copy of it to emphasize the point.
