The Constitution had no say in the writting about being pro slavery or not, because men had refused to sign it if it included on for or not for slavery. So it was left out of the Constitution, but it was added later when it was banned in the admendments.

Southern proslavery arguments did not include the belief that slavery was mandated by the Constitution of the United States. Slavery had been a contentious issue between the North and South since the Constitutional Convention of 1787.
The U.S. Constitution of 1787 contained proslavery elements, such as the Three-Fifths Compromise, which counted enslaved individuals as three-fifths of a person for representation and taxation purposes, and the Fugitive Slave Clause, which required the return of escaped enslaved people. However, it also contained antislavery sentiments, such as the prohibition of the slave trade after 1808 and the language of liberty and equality that inspired later abolitionist movements. The Constitution's ambiguous language allowed for both proslavery and antislavery interpretations, reflecting the deeply divided views on slavery at the time. This duality ultimately contributed to the tensions leading up to the Civil War.
