You mean 13 slaves states seceding from a Powerful Union led by a slave owning general from Virgina? I dunno, what are the parallels between the one event and the other?
*sigh*
No, not the 3rd grade level parallels. I’m talking about the rationale for both that were put forward.
The Founding Fathers went through a completely different process, with actual rational reasons brought about by real overreach from a London government that they had no representation in. While the confederates didn’t even bother to offer rational reasons, and were BY NO DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE being oppressed by a far off government that they had no representation in. In fact they had exercised far greater influence to get what they wanted than anyone in 1776 could have ever dreamed of.
