This is how massive voter fraud is rationalized and threatens democracy.

Looks like Teddy Johnson wants to turn our nation into a third world country faster than it’s already happening.

Kinda flies in the face of the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, doesn’t it?

Obviously this PhD candidate does not understand that the 3/5s ‘rule’ in the constitution was to limit the size of the slave holding states congressional seats, since the slaves could NOT vote or hold office. How much more power would the slave states have had in congress if the slaves were counted as ‘whole persons’ who did not have the vote and thus their number would have been used to perpetuate slavery longer than it actually was.

Johnson suggests giving each black person five-thirds of a vote, to reverse the old three-fifths compromise written into the U.S. Constitution.For those, like Mr Johnson, who clearly didn't LEARN anything in history class, other than the modern propaganda...
The Constitution's Three-Fifths compromise was to HELP blacks, not insinuate that they were less than human... and they knew it back then. Slaves were chattel and as such could not even bring cases to court (see the Dred Scott decision for verification). In Congress, representation is decided based on the 10-year census. Northern states wanted to prevent Southern states from importing so many slaves that they would get more members in Congress, and vote for slavery for ALL of the nation. This was an issue that almost prevented us form forming a nation of states back in the 1780s. To limit the growth of the number of Southern Congressmen, the Three-Fifths Compromise was written... again, to STOP the spread of slavery.
(Ionically, Democrats today continue to do the same thing that they did 160+ years ago, import more and more dependent people to increase their base of power in Congress. The more things change, the more they stay the same!)

He claims this is for equity and recompense, but in his examples he makes it perfectly clear it’s just about electing more Democrats.

If Republican presidential candidates were asked about this proposal at the next debate, which ones would equivocate in their answer and would any just say, “hell no”? I’d love to hear Jeb’s answer and then watch the question posed to Trump.

Actually, what would happen is that the results would give the reparations anyway. Taxes go up, poor get poorer, and then they’d do it again.

But if a pecuniary answer cant fix the structural disadvantage and it cant... Is that the final, official answer? You won't take money for reparations?
Well, if you insist, no money then!

Sure... as soon as I get my reparations from the British for what they did to my Scottish and Irish ancestors, and as soon as the Italians compensate me for what the Romans did to my ancestors and as soon as all sub Saharan Africa gives me reparations for what they did to my Neanderthal ancestors. THEN I will consider giving some of that to the blacks. But I think in fairness they should seek reparations from their fellow Africans first since they were the ones that captured and sold them to Muslims which sold them to the white man.
