More Americans should be aware of such fact versus fiction contained in literature such as Kennedy's The South Was Right and other works. To the victor go the spoils and much history has been replaced by fiction. The foundation of the Civil War history, mentioned in school when I was a kid, dictated to us that the war was a "righteous" war against slavery. Nothing could be farther from the truth. We can thank the the "union" for the encroachment on state independence and the destruction of the national economy as a whole. Federal tyranny is what the union wanted, and they now have it. Every one who votes for more government gets what they deserve.

This picture is from a rally where there was hundreds of American flags. But the media made the one guy with the Confederate flag the focal point.

Anyone that thinks that there will never be any racist is just stupid.

To be more charitable, though, and less dismissive, I think we should look to the General himself. We can all agree he was an honorable man, and a brilliant mind:

If you're skeptical, and we all have a right to be, you can look it up:
