How would the Founders - some of whom were slave owners - feel about a black man as president?

I suppose we all could ask stupid achronistic questions, huh?

Oops! “anachronistic”

Although some were slave owners, slavery itself was struck out of the Declaration of Independence so that the southern states would vote for secession from King George. Jefferson even wrote that slavery was a sin that future generations would pay for. My bishop, a USCCB member, actively campaigned for obama when he composed his how to vote flier and included them in every October 2008 bulletin. To my knowledge, the Founders did not create slavery is awesome pamphlets and then distribute them in their churches.
