By every measure, slavery was not just on the wane, its end was only a question of time and method ( already debated by many legislators ) would have likely varied by state & perhaps even by county. I would be very interested in hearing what you have to back up that claim. Can you show by any measure how slavery was on the wane in 1860? Can you show how it would have been possible under the confederate constitution that slavery could have varied by state, much less county?
As I told you on the "Black Historian Joining Confederate Heritage Group" thread, your great effort spent at fault-finding, I regard as a character flaw. Perhaps it is worse, maybe you resent the free speech of others, on the topics
they choose? I have not, & shall not search threads for people with which to quibble, but then I am not like you, and I am grateful for that.
I shall not fill in the blank areas of your history education. Look it up, sir, if you wish to know.
