So he was a major landowner, owned many plantations, had an overseer (the only other one who voted for him), and he never trafficked in human beings? Is it not a matter of simple honesty to report - without or without judgment - that he benefited enormously from the system of chattel slavery? You're making much more of the shame involved in slave trading by not saying anything. I'm not encouraging wokeness or anything of the sort. Just simple honesty. Peace to you and all.
I think you are over simplifying history. The balance of power in Congress between slave states and free labor states is really about subsidizing northern industry with a protective tariff and handouts to northern industry as well a national bank that would use fractional reserve fiat banking to expand credit to northern commercial enterprises. We call this crony capitalism today. Charles Pinckney was right to resist this. The whole issue over slavery is a faux painting concealing the norths desire for a commercial Republic.
Nah, you could just become a lawyer for whatever reason you wanted. There was a Founding Father from New Hampshire, named Josiah Bartlett, who had been a brewer his whole like, until one day he decided to just upon a law practice (:

This is my ancestor. My mind is blown to see documentaries about him. Our family the Brunsons, were truly a founding family.
I'm also related. My family name is McElroy.

He and his cousin fought hard to protect slavery during the Constitutional Convention.
Sounds like a pretty cool guy

Charles Pinckney, an underrated South Carolinian.
