You definitely don't know history or politics.

You need to put you crack pipe down and shut your hole.

The South was pro Constitution and pro states rights in the 19th century. You have been feed progressive pablum and swallowed it.

"The South was pro Constitution and pro states rights in the 19th century"

True, except for the little problem of enslaving people. More than a slight discontinuity with the "all men are created equal" vision of the Constitution.

[Leep]

I only care about my family and friends and neighbors..and more broadly the area where I live.

In 1860 slavery was not unconstitutional.

I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races [applause]—that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will for ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

"In 1860 slavery was not unconstitutional"

A major portion of that view point (Dred Scott case) was held on the basis that black people are not human.

This is the same type of anti-science approach that Democrats now use to justify biological men competing in women's sports.

[central_va]

Whatever. 19th century whites thought blacks were sub human, child-like and needing supervision. You are projecting backwards. It is what libtards do.

[indthkr]

There isn't anything terribly progressive about embracing the founder's vision in the first two paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence.

Being able to juggle those ideas vs what is more explicitly written in the Constitution requires actual thought.

Lazy people say "whatever", just like the leaders of the old Confederacy who were too dumb to figure out a better way to harvest their cotton.
