One of my major pet peeves in revisionist history is the way the 3/5th apportionment is presented today. You are exactly correct it was those opposed to slavery that fought for the 3/5th so as to reduce the power and representation of those that favored slavery.

Exactly and it drives me nuts when the left, matthews and the like start spewing lies. Even if they are to stupid to realize that’s what they are doing. I hope and pray they get caught in their own little trap and soon. If the African American community as a whole knew the truth, they’d never vote democrat again.
