Johannes, This, as well as your previous post, deserve a serious, considered response. I do not have time right now to do so, but plan on starting a Civil War thread and will hopefully answer you then and there. Thanks for the excellent statement of viewpoint.

<<Not only did their power give them the Executive Branch. It gave them the Legislative and Judicial Branches also. And they used their power over the North mercilessly to protect their slave interests. Northerners complained bitterly for years and years about the treatment, but Southerners did not listen.>> Yes. And this is why "state's rights" is such lark. The South didn't care about state's rights until they lost control of the Federal government. They sure didn't mind dictating to the Northern states when the South was in power. Steve
