Farmers who wrote the constitution could have ended slavery easily. They even thought about it but they chose to keep it. They thought they needed it. You see America grew up on slavery

People were so stuck on the fact that they were higher up then someone else and also they needed slaves to do the work that they didnt want to do themselves.
