Not including the amendments how does the constitution deal with the issue of slavery?
Found this: "Originally, the Framers were very careful about avoiding the words "slave" and "slavery" in the text of the Constitution. Instead, they used phrases like "importation of Persons" at Article 1, Section 9 for the slave trade, and "other persons" at Article 1, Section 2 for slaves. Not until the 13th Amendment was slavery mentioned specifically in the Constitution. There the term was used to ensure that there was to be no ambiguity as what exactly the words were eliminating. In the 14th Amendment, the euphemism "other persons" (and the three-fifths value given a slave) was eliminated. The Slavery Topic Page has a lot more detail."

What would be Hiawatha's view of the US Constitution?
Had Hiawatha lived to see the United States Constitution he no doubt would have recognized it and been proud to see that many of its components were borrowed from the Iroquois Constitution. According to various legends, Hiawatha was credited with helping to unify five warring Indian tribes in pre-colonial America. Those tribes were the Mohawks, the Oneidas, the Cayugas, the Senecas, and the Onondagas. Their constitution and democratic system of government was admired by the newcomers from England, particularly Benjamin Franklin, and this, along with its similarity, gave rise to the belief that the American constitution is based upon the constitution given to the Iroquois Confederacy by Deganawida and Hiawatha. In 2004 the US Government officially recognized the influence of the Iroquois Constitution on the US Constitution. Two links are provided below.

What does when the scope of a topic has a certain focus mean?
It means that the writer should learn to write better. "The scope of a topic" is the range the topic covers. "Birds" is a topic with a greater scope than "vultures" which still has a greater scope than "The feeding habits of vultures". Topics which have a limited scope might be said to be more focussed. Thus it is wrong to say that the scope of the topic has a focus. It is the topic itself which has focus. The author has written something like "the height of the man is tall" rather than "the man is tall". It is not clear what the words "a certain" mean here. Unless the author intends to identify the focus of the topic, they have an effect opposite to that they appear to have. "That girl had a certain something about her" means that whatever the quality of the girl was it is clearly uncertain. If the writer goes on to name the focus, then what he or she intended to write was "when the topic is focussed on . . ." then naming the focus of the topic. If not, the phrase means something like "when they are talking about you-know-what"
