Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. The question then arises, wh

ether the provisions of the Constitution, in relation to the personal rights and privileges to which the citizen of a State should be entitled, embraced the negro African race, at that time in this country, or who might afterwards be imported, who had then or should afterwards be made free in any State; and to put it in the power of a single State to make him a citizen of the United States, and endue him with the full rights of citizenship in every other State without their consent? Does the Constitution of the United States act upon him whenever he shall be made free under the laws of a State, and raised there to the rank of a citizen, and immediately clothe him with all the privileges of a citizen in every other State, and in its own courts? The court thinks the affirmative of these propositions cannot be maintained. And if it cannot, the plaintiff in error could not be a citizen of the State of Missouri, within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States, and, consequently, was not entitled to sue in its courts. Why is Justice Taney’s argument ineffective? He uses the freedom of African Americans as evidence. He uses a previous status of African Americans as evidence. He uses the dissenting argument of the court as evidence. He uses the ruling of the previous court as evidence.

Answer:

He uses a previous status of African Americans as evidence.

Explanation:

The reason Judge Taney's arguments are ineffective is because he uses a previous status of African Americans as evidence which is not admissible because it is a previous status and not a current one.

Judge Taney wants to derive the and make certain the status of African Americans and how it is translated according to the Constitution to ascertain the rights and privileges they should enjoy which rendered his arguments ineffective.

Explain Theseus' Comparison of waiting to a "step-dame or a dowager"
MrRa [10]
A step-dame (stepmother) and dowager (widow holding property for her deceased husband) would make their son (or stepson) wait until they die to inherit all of the land or money.

Theseus is saying that he is tired of waiting for his wedding day to Hippolyta, comparing himself to that 'young man' waiting for his dowager or stepdame to die because to him, Hippolyta is a great fortune.
