Abstract: It is widely held among public law scholars and in legal academia that the drafters of Section One of the 14th Amendment worried about and intended to overrule Taney's holding in his per curiam opinion in Dred Scott v. Sanford. Taney held that African Americans never had been nor could ever be citizens of the United States. To prevent his holding from having a future effect Section One of the 14th Amendment voided it. But this view -- when tested using a simple tool from qualitative methods -- does not hold up. After demonstrating that this idea is exaggerated -- and made plausible primarly because of the rise and development of judicial supremacy -- the paper analyzes the legislative sources of constitutional meaning and of the definition of citizenship and links them to the incentives that congressional party politicians have to use Article V for party-building.
