I am from the South having lived to Texas and Louisiana most of my life. However, while I understand their may be nostalgia for the Confederacy, you cannot ignore that fact that the constitutions of both the CSA and each Slave Holding State was based on promoting and retaining the institution of Slavery. That spot will not wash out of the fabric of the Confederate Flag. However, that spot has faded from the American Flag due to the Union's reputiation of Slavery and its actions to rid the south of slavery.

Slaves bought and sold for nearly 90 years under the American flag... and NOT ONE slave freed in the Union Slave states by the Emancipation Proclamation. Your argument is as hollow as it gets. You have been indoctrinated by the left Mr. H. Paul Pressler IV, Esquire.... by the way, would you happen to have any Grey Poupon?
