AGAIN: Robert E. Lee didn't believe in slavery, nor did Stonewall Jackson. I am familiar with Stephens Speech. He was ONE man, even if he was Vice-President. Not even the majority of people in the South believed in, or fought for slavery. "Senator Jefferson Davis was quite adamant that any NORTHERN state that seceded over the Fugitive Slave Law would brought back into the Union at the point of a Southron bayonet." DOCUMENTATION please!

Neither man was much bothered by the institution, either. Both were slave owners.
