In my TL, instead of having a League of Nations or United Nations, various international organizations and bodies are growing independently and organically, for various reasons. Therefore they come out of many different areas and different concepts. I need some ideas for what issues are covered...

What if, against all the odds, slavery was mentioned in the Constitution. More importantly, it was was mentioned favorably. In TTL slavery is a 'right' and the USA government views it that way. How would this effect things? Do you think it would merely cause the issue to come to a head sooner...
