"And until it shall be accomplished, until the time shall come when we can point without a blush to the language of the Declaration of Independence, every friend of humanity will seek to lighten the galling chains of slavery and better to the utmost of his power the wretched condition of the slave." Roger Taney. Trial of Jacob Gruber...1818

Speaking on the framers of the Constitution in 1857, Mr. Taney says.."..had no rights which the white man was bound to respect; and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit. He was bought and sold and treated as an ordinary article of merchandise and traffic, whenever profit could be made by it."

Guess he gots a different view..lol...welcome to the board Jeffry.
