Jokerdem, do you really not know that George Washington freed his slaves in his will?

The problem was his wife didn’t agree and a share of his property went to her by law.

“Jokerdem, do you really not know that George Washington freed his slaves in his will. The problem was his wife didn't agree and a share of his property went to her by law.”

Do you mean his slaves were freed after he was dead? And this is your evidence that Washington is the prototypical American abolitionist?

Do you actually think this discovery will convince even 10 percent of 13 percent of the population to join the GOP and vote for a lower marginal capital gains tax rate?

I guess it could happen that way.
