While this is not the place to correct your erroneous views of Hamilton, he never supported secession nor did any of the framers not even Jefferson. And no, Hamilton has been universally excoriated and lied about by the Jeffersonian-loving historians for almost two hundred yrs. Sure he spent almost two decades fighting for the freedom, independence and strength of his NATION not NY state but his NATION so he could turn it into a monarchy. If you believe this what else will you believe?

Britian tried as early as 1775 to bribe him into supporting the Crown and he refused risking all in opposing it so try another Jeffersonian lie. He is one of the greatest men this country has ever produced and is responsible for giving it an early strength capable of surviving the nutball administrations of Jefferson and Madison. No patriot ever did more for this country than Alexander Hamilton. He sacrificed his fortune, his health, his family and ultimately his life for it. Why do you think Washington loved him like a son?

North Carolina Germans never owned slaves and likely sent significant numbers to fight for the Cornfederacy and for the interests of the Slaveocrats. It was also easy to delude the poor in the South since they were uneducated and used to docilely following the Planters. Most could not vote and when they did it was only as directed by their betters.

Did not the Democrats pile people in buses and drive them to vote?
