BTW vlad, who authored the Nebraska Kansas act mentioned in my above link?

None other than your candidate, Stephen Douglas:

Kansas-Nebraska Act
Author: United States. Congress
Date: May 30, 1854

Officially titled “An Act to Organize the Territories of Nebraska and Kansas,” this act repealed the Missouri Compromise, which had outlawed slavery above the 36 degrees 30 minutes latitude in the Louisiana Territory and reopened the national struggle over slavery in the western territories. In January 1854, Senator Stephen Douglas introduced a bill that divided the land west of Missouri into two territories, Kansas and Nebraska. He argued for popular sovereignty, which would allow the settlers of the new territories to decide if slavery would be legal there. Antislavery supporters were outraged because, under the terms of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, slavery would have been outlawed in both territories. After months of debate, the Kansas-Nebraska Act passed on May 30, 1854.

My candidate, Stephen Douglas? Do you look at the stuff that you type?

What bizarre logic is at work that liberals in 2008 are required to answer for anybody who was ever a Democrat in any time or place?
