Sorry Bubba, but my schedule does not revolve around your posts here.

That excerpt from Mein Kampf is a direct praise of Lincoln's policies. Lincoln was absolute authoritarian and socialist. Like Henry Clan and Alexander Hamilton before him, he never saw a tax he didn't like. He was a consumate politician in that he gathered power around him at any cost. In today's terms, that cost would be 6 million American dead.

Frankly speaking, even if the war were about slavery that cost is unacceptable.

But the war was not about slavery, and we bot know that. It was about Lincoln's "American System" beliefs that he adopted from Clay.

Get reading.

No it's not. All it is is a statement that that states created after the original 13 were creations of the United States and not the other way around.Hitler also praised modern highways. Does that mean that Eisenhower was a fascist?

Ah, that must be why all the secession documents talked about Henry Clay and the American System. Oh, wait. They mostly talked about slavery.

Try reading some books that aren't spoonfeeding you what you want to hear.
