The question is simply this: Can a negro, whose ancestors were imported into this country, and sold as s***es, become a member of the political community formed and brought into existence by the Constitution of the United States, and as such become entitled to all of the rights, and privileges, and immunities, guarantied [sic] by that instrument to the citizen?
It found that no s***e or descended of s***es could be a citizen.
