They perfectly understood the meaning of the language they used, and how it would be understood by others; and they knew that it would not in any part of the civilized world be supposed to embrace the negro race, which, by common consent, had been excluded from civilized Governments and the family of nations, and doomed to slavery. –Dred Scott v. Sandford,
Supreme Court of the United States
Which statement best explains the fallacy in the argument?
Taney is quick to assume that the writers of the US Constitution excluded African Americans born in the country from citizenship.
Taney unfairly appeals to human emotion by creating a sense of hopelessness for enslaved persons during the time of the case.
Because the Constitution does not explicitly exclude African Americans from citizenship, Taney is begging the claim.
The men who wrote the Constitution made a mistake in not writing about the position of enslaved people within the nation.

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
