Times were different then.If we did that then blacks would still be slaves and women wouldn't have the right to vote and neither would most white men. You had to be a white male PROPERTY owner, which meant owning land or a store.
Although many of us own homes on a piece of dirt the vast majority of American live in apartments owned by others and would not qualify to vote.

As we all should be, when it comes to the Bill of Rights.
People came to the Americas to own land.
They came to America to worship Christ as they wanted to, not what each monarchy told them to.
