You keep overlooking the “...and having the power...” part of that quote. The South was so inclined. And they did try to rise up and shake off the existing government. But they didn’t want it badly enough to win their rebellion, unlike our Founding Fathers. They were lacking in power. Or perhaps it was because they were motivated by slavery and in the end that really wasn’t worth the struggle.

Lincoln's support of secession is mentioned and it takes you exactly one post to play the race card. This ties your indoor record.

Next you will say the word Hitler.
