Reason #1: Even after the 15th amendment was ratified, some states still found ways to circumvent the Constitution and prevent all African-Americans from voting.

Reason #2: The Supreme Court struck it down in 1915, many states used the "grandfather clause" to keep descendents of slaves out of elections. The clause said you could not vote unless your grandfather had voted -- an impossibility for most people whose ancestors were slaves, African-Americans.

Reason #3: Discrimination practices also prevented African-Americans from voting.

Why is the first rule of investing to only invest money that wont be needed for at least five years?

valkas [14]

Because an investment takes time to mature- if you need the money in the next five years you shouldn't be investing it you should be saving it. Also, you may not have a successful investment and may not receive anything back.
