As long as you're going to get involved in rewriting history, why not choose some subject worth of your efforts?

May I suggest that you undertake to prove the truth about slavery -- that it was a benign and constructive institution, good for all involved in it, and that it needs to be rescued from those hatemongers like Lincoln and Stowe and the damn Quakers and all those others who wrongly maligned it. There are lots of contemporaneous resources, mostly Southern voices whose truth was stilled by the invading damn Yankees, you can draw on to quote here at great length.

If you can persuade yourself that the bomb shouldn't have been dropped, persuading yourself that slavery was a good thing should be a piece of cake.
