More small slaveless farmers ...

That was the most fraudulent part of it. The fireeaters fooled everyone. Many secession votes were unanimous. Of course, East Tennessee and West Virginia remained loyal. No one has even been able to understand why poor white Southernors favored secession then and vote for anti-labor politicians now. Read MLKing's speech delievered in from the the Alabama state capitol at the end of the Selma-Montgomery march. He begged for poor whites and blacks to cooperate politically. Most poor whites were just as dumb as they ever were.
