the obvious answer is YES, if such document was written by a handfull of un-elected aristocrats, un-read & un-heeded by mass of the population (who mostly dispised the wealthy landowners! had we won our war against the damnyankees, the plight of the aristocrats MIGHT have been :slaveless & landless!) AND of NO IMPORT to the cause of freedom. >98% of southrons neither owned, nor wanted to own slaves (or COULD have for that matter, as slaves were $$$$$$$$ and VERY few southrons had the money. the AVERAGE southron service member had GROSS assets of less than $25.00. the aristocrats, with few exceptions, did NOT fight for the CAUSE of southron LIBERTY). the war for southron liberty was, in the main, a PEASANT REVOLT against the damnyankee/wealty classes.

Why didn't you guys just ignore their calls for secession and war and save 600,000 lives?

So many fought and died for the filthy lucre of so few.

South Carolina's Declaration of Secession plainly say the cause was slavery.
