tejek Man oh man. That is so dumb. Jefferson Davis believed in States Rights. He was not a racist. He had two sons. One who was his natural son and one he adopted. His adopted son was biracial. You need to study history and clear some of that mud from between your ears. There were some great Generals who fought with the Confederate Army who were not fighting for slavery. Stonewall Jackson, one of the greatest generals of all time, fought out of loyalty to the State of Virginia. He believed in the right of the State of Virginia to decide its future. Yes, a study of history could do you a lot of good. I say "could". That is up to you. Just out of curiosity, how do you feel about the thousands upon thousands of white boys who died to end slavery in this country. They believed that is what they were fighting for. You say you have no interest in the Civil War. Perhaps you should. Having confessed your ignorance of the subject why do you continue to comment on it?
