That's one of those facts of life you learn from your uncle.

As a trade in?

They're like pound puppies! You can trade them in when they stop being cute.

To the extent this applies to Jefferson specifically, the caricature of Jefferson as a perfect unreconstructed hypocrite with regards to slavery is misleading. I would recommend that people read any somewhat longer summary that isn't written to advance just one side of the argument. In particular, while I'm not clear…
