The Constitution does mention that 3/5s of a slave = 1 citizen*. Today Repubicans use that ratio against Demoncrats in elections; as 59 (3/5s) Senate seats is a minority; 55% job approval for Obama is abject failure; 255 Ds vs 179 Rs in House is "jamming things down our throats", where as 239 Rs is "the people have spoken". _______________________ * For legislative apprortionment, Southern states wanted 1 slave = 1 citizen; Northern states wanted 1 slave = 0 citizens. 3/5s was compromise.
