Reply to NY Times Article where Senator Linsey Graham said, in effect," Our Instructions are not Racist"

 For 80 years the Slaves only counted for 3/5 ths of a person for purposes of our census. See the Constitution. So seems that demonstrates that at least until the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments followed the loosing Souths philosophy from the protection of the Constitution, that a way back to Jefferson's first draft of the Declaration of Independence could be found. That's the one where the currently belittled slave owner put a line or two about freeing slaves in the Constitution which was taken out of the final draft so Georgia and North Carolina would sign the Declaration. so, 600,000 whites lost their lives freeing the slaves in an act of saving our Union, Amending the Constitution, and Freeing the Slaves from the institution of slavery. That left the job of getting free and forced education to the white population and an extra 30 years for the black population to be set up in a "separate but equal" position that left the vast majority of African Americans in separate but unequal schools until 1954 when the future Justice Marshal won the Brown vs Board of Education Decision before the Supreme Court. A decision not fully enforced to this day. By Constitutional mandate black lives counted only 60% of white lives from 1788 until 1867 or '68. Then by law Black lives were not entitled to the same education as Whites. The 5th and 14th Amendments "No person... may be denied life, liberty, or property without due process of law." Gunned down in the street is not "DUE PROCESS"
