That's pure bullshit. You reek of the stench of right wing lunacy.
When the constitution was originally drafted by our hallowed Framers,
niggers
were slaves with no right to vote.
We acknowledge your ignorance of historical fact.
State Constitutions that explicitly protected the rights of blacks to vote
Delaware 1776
New Hampshire 1784
New York 1777
Pennsylvania 1776
Massachusetts 1780
Indeed, except for South Carolina, freed blacks could and did vote and
several black held public office.
So in many, one may even say most, places blacks as well as whites voted on
the ratification of the US Constitution when it was put to a vote in
1787-1788
