Not a one of them could honestly deny, that if one had a crystal ball back then that could show those Union soldiers the US circa 2011, that half would have tossed their rifles in the mud and went back home.

Most of our problems were instituted by Southern Democrats working with FDR to reinstitute slavery. Perhaps we can have a new birth of states rights, so just as individual states banned slavery then, individual states can ban the new slavery now.

The southern states rebelled because they were opposed to states rights to ban slavery
