This is just another “act of love.”
I wish i had a time machine so could send these schmucks back in time to convince the constitution convention to count slaves as a full person when aportioning seats in the house then return to current times to sbow them what a worse mess they made of history as they may very well still be slaves.
Starship Troopers is a coming-of-age story about duty, citizenship, and the role of the military in society.[43] The book portrays a society in which suffrage is earned by demonstrated willingness to place society’s interests before one’s own, at least for a short time and often under onerous circumstances, in government service; in the case of the protagonist, this was military service.

This means that GEORGE ZIMMERMAN gets preference. Yes, that George Zimmerman.
So, If someone is half black ..., or one quarter black ...?
One man, one vote. Unless you happen to vote Democrat ...
“Libs who complain about the 3/5 Compromise often are ignorant of the fact that it was Northerners who proposed it - since blacks counted as people on par with whites would give the South some level of parity with the North.”
More “slave state” and “free state” than just N vs S. One goal of the Constitution was to put an end to slavery, which was mostly legacy British. Limiting Southern political power was part of the plan, as was setting a goal of 100 years so that estate ownership might age-out.
Most people, blacks especially, fail to see how 3/5 benefited blacks.
or mad-cow.
Feminists, gays, blacks, environmentalists - every leftwing constituency is totalitarian in nature and seeks to dominate. They have no interest in being equal.
There’s that damn white privelege again.
It wouldn’t matter. It will never be enough. Nothing will ever be enough.
Well, if they do that then I can self-identify as black and make my vote count more! In fact, all non-blacks can do that and then the effect will be cancelled out.
That way the only way to get richer is to work.
Probably not. I have actually tried to explain this before and don’t think I had much success.
We’d need picture ID cards with a breakdown of black, hispanic, Islander, Native American, all the little distinctions on the census form, to sort it all out and really be fair. The ID card would state how many shares, or votes, you got. Pure Native American would be at the top, “white” at the bottom (not Caucasian because Spanish and Mexicans and Arabs are, technically, all “Caucasian”)
Well, gee...then they can vote themselves all kinds of goodies from the US Treasury. How convenient!
Way things look, it’ll eventually come to that anyway. But hopefully not in my lifetime.
From wiki:
The Caucasian race (also Caucasoid[1] or occasionally Europid[2]) is a taxon historically used to describe the physical or biological type of some or all of the populations of Europe, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Western Asia, Central Asia, and South Asia.[3] The term was used in biological anthropology for many people from these regions, without regard necessarily to skin tone.[4] First introduced in early racial science and anthropometry, the taxon has historically been used to denote one of the three proposed major races (Caucasoid, Mongoloid, Negroid) of humankind.[5] Although its validity and utility are disputed by many anthropologists, Caucasoid as a biological classification remains in use,[6] particularly within the field of forensic anthropology.[5]
The left is insane
I am looking forward to the backlash
Remember, blacks have a hard time getting photo ID’s so they can vote, so this whole thread is pointlesss.
