The central issue in the taking of Tejas was slavery, which was illegal in México, and economically important to the slavers ... Jefferson supported the slavers, is part of what i'm saying ... the larger point though, as i have this morning clearly typed , is the gap between myths taught the US national as a child, and historical reality Anything moral in nature you want to put on that, John, fill yer boots .... you may wish to ignore this gap, well feel free to do so, it's a free country [north of the 49th anyway] ' The capture of Canada is a mere matter of marching' - Thomas Jefferson, 1812
