--- "The U.S. did not introduce slavery there as a new practice."

Moreover, before the ACTUAL American revolution against Britain, the British loyalists were also among slave owners.

The attempt by the Left to make slavery into a Democrat talking point has been insidious and wholly unfounded. One finds easily:

"During the Civil War, the Republican Party was the anti-slavery party of the North, led by President Lincoln, while the Democratic Party was divided, with its Southern wing supporting secession and slavery, and its Northern wing opposing Republican war policies. Republicans championed a strong federal government, while Democrats largely favored states' rights."

For any and all who would find the following graphics somehow offensive, this graphic of a Democrat campaign ad in the Civil War era is found in the "America's Black Holocaust Museum" website.

Would you say these Northern Republicans were conservative or liberal?

And what sort of people live in these Northern Republican strongholds now?
