It was illegal in 1860 to have a half black half white president in U.S.
- anamax 17y ago> It was illegal in 1860 to have a half black half white president in U.S. No, it wasn't. Disagree? Point to the relevant part of the US constitution. (The 3/5ths clause isn't on point, and before you point to it, ask yourself who benefits from a higher number and who benefits from a lower number. Hint - slave states wanted a higher number....) There were free blacks in the US from before the revolution. The males were eligible to vote and hold office.
