Let's Go Rev ... Civil War ... No cut n paste

No, you're right. It's an obvious fact.
Slavery was dead.

It was the source of southern wealth , the southern governors and secession reps all Repeat it again an again. i think they knew better than you Gunny. sorry.

It couldn't have worked past East Texas. THAT is a fact.

the confederate constitution made it clear that they planed to have slavery in EVERY square inch of land the confederacy obtained be it territory or state. Even Sam Huston wrote letters saying that we was in favor of slavery in Texas.

Nobody fought a war over a bunch of slaves.

the U.S. did.

You mean those same slaves Lincoln was willing to let be slaves in the states that existed if they returned to the Union?

Yep those slaves, but the South didn't believe him.
Like if Obama told you and some others here that he wasn't a muslim. or not a communist, or an american citizen.

Or the Irish and blacks that rioted in NY against conscription because they got treated worse than blacks and didn't give a damn about them?
Pick your poison.

Who likes war. You'll alway have some that will fight a draft.
But about 100,000 blacks DID join the Union Army to help free the slaves. And people like Fredrick Douglas recruited for the Union and Harriet Tubman recruited and acted as a SPY for the Union army.

you cherry pick only one side of that issue, look at the bigger picture.
you don't just talk about the anti-war protesters and draft dodgers when you look a Viet-nam war. There were plenty of guys that did go willingly some even volunteered.
