Who Was Allowed to Vote?

One of the most common assumptions about early American history is that the United States was founded as a democracy. The story is familiar: thirteen colonies declared independence, a constitution was written, elections were held, and the people governed themselves. Yet this picture becomes much more complicated when we ask a simple question:Who was actually allowed to vote?The answer surprises many modern readers. In the United States of George Washington, most people could not vote. This […]

The impression it creates is not.The modern mind tends to imagine the American Revolution and the Constitution as parts of a single event. Independence is declared, a Constitution is written, and a […]
