"Glenn Beck vs. The Wing-Nuts --->The Slaves are 3/5ths of a Person Debate"

I thought the Constitution made it quite clear:

"Slavery will always be a horrible chapter in American History, but the three-fifths compromise was not. The three-fifths clause was not a measurement of human worth; it was an attempt to reduce the number of pro-slavery proponents in Congress. By including only three-fifths of the total numbers of slaves into the congressional calculations, Southern states were actually being denied additional pro-slavery representatives in Congress and electoral votes for selecting the president."
