OK. So to start, slavery is just a weird blip that doesn't count because it's not in the Constitution, because those people weren't considered people and therefore it's all just a re-do somehow, right?

Women didn't participate in your pet process - that's gotta be worth an asterisk in your thinking somewhere?

Trying to figure out how this plain-speaking document that protects freedom could have these gigantic holes in it. Holes so large they failed to protect the rights of the majority of people.
