I'm not, but post Civil War, America managed to continue along even though the South continued to reject the "philosophy" of the side that won. Indeed, it took another 100 years before a semi-consensus on race was achieved. So, Ben's post doesn't hold up.

There is no way to argue any position on this question in 280 characters that won't get riddled with caveats, but the fundamental fact is that you need a baseline of unity, which the antebellum America lost & shattered over, but the postbellum America gradually recovered.
