Well said. You know your history.

Just some critical bits. I have a fair bit of historical knowledge regarding other parts of history, but in the last few years I have been researching and focusing on the lead up to the civil war.

I never study the battles or military engagements because they do not speak to the principles involved.

I regard the ability to separate from a corrupt DC government as a possible necessity in the future.

Have no affinity for the South or slavery, but this principle that people have a right to leave a corrupt and oppressive government is quite important in my opinion.

“I never study battles or military engagements because they do not speak to the principles involved’’.

That is, without a doubt The Stupidest thing you have EVER posted.

“War is politics by other means’’ said Clauswitz and politics do not win wars.

Battles are what win wars. Truth is the first casualty in war and politics are the second.
