	The reconstruction senators were appointed by the North. No way the citizens would elect them then or now.

	Both Revels and Bruce were elected to the Senate by the Mississippi state legislature, just like every other Senator. Mississippi, at the time, had a Black majority. All the North was doing at the time was insuring that white people weren't using intimidation to prevent Blacks from exercising their rights.
