The three-fifths ratio, or "Federal ratio", had a major effect on pre-Civil War political affairs due to the disproportionate representation of slaveholding states relative to voters. As a result, southerners dominated the Presidency, the Speakership of the House, and the Supreme Court in the period prior to the Civil War.[7]
@triofdoom No he wasn't. He asserted that the founders counted blacks as three-fifths of a human being. That is not true. Three-fifths of the total population of blacks where counted as a compromise towards representation in the House of Representatives -- not that blacks were three-fifths of a human being.
There will be no mistakes in the Nation (NOI). If you have factual evidence to the contrary, write and present your evidence to the Final Call magazine and be sure to cite the lecture and the statement you feel is false and then state your facts. ITS THAT SIMPLE.

@triofdoom That is true -- and it is not a rebuttal to my aforementioned statement if that is what you were intending it to be.

@ziggypowe I looked the three fifths compromise on wikipedia and he seemed to be on the same page as what happened in history.

Farrakhan took the three-fifths compromise grossly out of context.
