"Since the Civil War, in which the Southern States were conquered, against all historical logic and common sense, the American people have been in a condition of political and popular decay. The beginnings of a great new social order based on the principle of slavery and inequality were destroyed by that war, and with it also the embryo of a future truly great America." Adolph Hitler, 1933

That quote is a matter of hearsay with no corroboration that it ever occurred. It was reported to have been said after the fact by another who claimed to have been in Hitler's presence, quoting him.

Here is one thing that Hitler is indeed known to have said:

"[In America] it is impossible to speak of original sovereignty in regard to the majority of the states. Many of them were not included in the federal complex until long after it had been established. The states that make up the American Union are mostly in the nature of territories, more or less, formed for technical administrative purposes, their boundaries having in many cases been fixed in the mapping office. Originally these states did not and could not possess sovereign rights of their own. Because it was the Union that created most of the so-called states." - Adolph Hitler, Mein Kampf volume II, 1926

Seems that Hitler's view of the union corresponds nicely with Lincoln's. Wonder why that is?

Oh, call on me, call on me! Is it because both were petty tyrants addicted to power?!
