If you dive deep and read first hand accounts, newspapers and letters from the era you will get an entirely different perspective on the Civil War. History is written by the victor.

[fortheDeclaration]

A great President who defended the Constitution from an unlawful rebellion.

[TheTimeOfMan]

Lincoln was worse than Obama. I rank obunghole as the second worst president ever.

[fortheDeclaration]

The President takes an oath to defend the Constitution and he did so.

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

I guess it is safe to assume that he will not be attending next year’s Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner.

[fortheDeclaration]

Yes, we have a strong neo-Confederate group here.

[TheTimeOfMan]

Regarding my previous post. I am not, however, suggesting that slavery is in any way acceptable.

Talk about theft. Slavery is stealing a person’s entire life.

Lincoln hated blacks almost like Hitler hated jews.

Hitler was worse because of the death camps.

But Lincoln bombed the black’s towns and homesites.
And had he lived, blacks would have been loaded on to boxcars, and shipped to Africa.

unlawful rebellion.

Can you post the article and section of the Constitution regarding secession of a state(s)?

There is a good book “Lies My Teacher Told Me” by Clyde N Wilson that covers a lot of these matters..

Oh lord, not this “war of northern aggression” crap again.

My great grandmother fled across the Mississippi from the yankee hordes. She heard their guns besieging Vicksburg.

Her little sister died in the trip. Rich mans war, poor mans fight and the poorest were the refugees.

[fortheDeclaration]

Here we go.

There is no provision for secession, so the attempt to do so was unlawful.

[central_va]

There is no provision for secession,

Therefore the US Constitution is silent on the subject so it is not unconstitutional for a state to secede.

How about the number on this thread.

If you do your own research on Lincoln one of the first things you will discover about him is that he was a racist. A KKK type of racist to the nth degree.

[Theodore R.]

The Lincoln administration was in many ways the one that Henry Clay never got to organize because he lost three presidential elections.

[bigdaddy45]

And you’re just a sore loser.

[Theodore R.]

I believe I read that book but too many years have passed for me to remember for sure.

[PAR35]

In The Clansman: A Historical Romance of the Ku Klux Klan, Lincoln is introduces as ‘The Friend of the South’

So supporters of ‘Honest’ Abe should be aware of the company that they keep.
