Read what Douglas said about citizenship, and then answer the question.
What position did Stephen Douglas state during
the debates?
People of all races were rightful US citizens.
He wanted citizenship given only to white
men
There should be two different kinds, or levels,
of US citizenship
"For one, I am opposed to negro citizenship
in any and every form. I believe this
Government was made on the white basis. I
believe it was made by white men for the
benefit of white men and their posterity
forever, and I am in favor of confining
citizenship to white men."
Stephen Douglas, 1858
