In my opinion, the idea that suddenly, 137 years after slavery ended in America, it has become an issue where our justly beloved First President housed his household servants, while he was in Philadelphia, is nothing but a contrived attempt at creating a controversy, designed to undermine American images with the historically illiterate. This sort of thing has become all too common since Bill Clinton was elected President. I realize that we are supposed to be done with Clinton's policies, but this sure reeks of them. I would hope that the new Administration would reverse this decision of the Park Service.

I wonder how much of this "compelling history" became more compelling to the activist historians when government $$$ came flowing into the area.
