DiogenesLamp: "Article IV, says the same thing, so it's really axiomatic."

It says no such thing and only your own wild fantasies imagine them the same.
Indeed, as I read the Dred Scott history, even crazy Roger himself never argued the kind of nonsense DiogenesLamp posts here over & over in defense of the Dred Scott ruling.

So we can see the most bizarre situation possible: DiogenesLamp agrees with crazy Roger's ruling but for reasons which crazy Roger himself was never imaginative enough to concoct!!

How does that even work?
