When you imply I am uninformed, you seem to overlook my cites to historical documents and scholarly commentary on history. Reasons the Civil War occurred are complex. What support do you have for your assertions?

if you arent able to figure that out, let me know. finally a guy named Lincoln explained this about Founding Fathers oh, 100, 200 times Quite famous at the time. He was correct too, re the founding fathers and slavery He used what we call facts...read his full speeches

“a position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.” You said I should read Lincoln’s speeches. I just quoted from a speech he gave in 1858. 4/8
