otoh, the CHIEF reason that proves that the WBTS had little to do with chattel slavery is that lincoln, the TYRANT & GEN Grant BOTH said that the war was ONLY to "preserve the Union".

more to the point, lincoln was willing to protect slavery FOREVER, if the south would remain in the union.

the WBTS had just ONE major cause = the south wanted & WANTS our freedom from the DY elites & our own FREE REPUBLIC.

that was true in 1861 & TODAY.

every other "cause of the war" were irritants and/or minor causes.

Hey, did you learn that from the professor at Tulane? Or was it Grambling? Or was it Tuskegee?
