So, here's something to think about.
The left clearly wants to do away with anything and everything that can even remotely be connected to slavery. We often hear them whining about how, whenever they perceive they've been wronged, they feel their Constitutional rights have been violated, blahblahblah.
But, if these people truly believe everything connected to slavery is bad, and that we should adopt the approach of removing every reminder of it from the public arena, shouldn't those supporting such actions also choose to not demand their Constitutional rights?
James Madison was a slave owner; he owned over 100 of them. He brought slaves to the White House and sold slaves for personal profit. Surely this disgusting figure in America's dark history has, and had, nothing to offer people of color, other than a plantation to work on.
How is it that a black man can hate such a person with such contempt, yet rely on the very document he penned to ensure his rights?
