You said, "...women and blacks would not have the right to vote."
I said, "Where in the constitution do you find that?"
The gist of the conversation prior to your post was a reference to the constitution regarding the genius of the writers to include the portion on the electoral college. You countered with your statement above, implying, it seemed to me, that the electoral college is not a good thing because the times have changed and what seemed genius then, is not now. I simply wanted to know where in the constituation when it was first written that it excluded blacks and women. I'm not saying in practice it didn't, because we all know that they couldn't vote then and amendments were added to allow them to, but the original constitution language does not state it.
