A good example of how some folks use the mix and match approach to their historical commentary. And maintaining that the War of Northern Aggression was about slavery is an example of how some folks use the affirmative action, politically correct revisionist approach for their historical commentary.
Thanks for correcting the record.
You're welcome.

I agree the war was not about slavery. It was about putting down an insurrection and preserving the Union.
However, secession was 100% about slavery and without secession there would have been no war.
