Mike Huckabee Says Dred Scott Still ‘Law Of The Land’
[su_publirb]
Mike Huckabee insists that the Dred Scott decision, which says blacks aren’t fully human, is still law in the United States.
“Michael, the Dred Scott decision of 1857 still remains to this day the law of the land, which says that black people aren’t fully human,” Huckabee told radio show host Michael Medved. “Does anybody still follow the Dred Scott Supreme Court decision?”Dred Scott was overturned by the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868.
The former Arkansas governor and Republican presidential candidate has referred to the infamous decision several times in defense of Davis, but this is the first time he has described it as the “law of the land.”
He previously had argued against the legal doctrine of judicial supremacy, which holds that the Judiciary is the final arbiter of the U.S. Constitution.
