Grant’s main flaw was drink.

How do you know that?


There is no reliable evidence of drunkenness by Grant during the Civil War.

Thanks so much for the insightful posting of the truth about Grant!

“Here then is a humble and modest man who had but one goal, that of saving the Union. And he accomplished this goal! The debt owned him by this country can never be repaid, except by everlasting honor and respect. That respect can be bestowed by eliminating the “drinking comments” from conversation about Ulysses S. Grant and by eradicating that image from the American consciousness. Grant deserves nothing less. Through the technological marvel of the Internet the U.S. Grant Network is working ceaselessly toward achieving that goal!”
