I’m not watching that show. History might expose me to the Confederate Battle Flag, which would be bad. I’ll get my facts from Hillary, Obama, and MSNBC, since they are unbiased and they know what I need to know.
This is hosted by Forrest Sawyer. Is it told from a liberal perspective?
Watched some of it. It looks good! Thanks for posting it.

I’ve seen it many times and it seems pretty fair to me.
You're welcome. It's been around for several years.
You can also download the series on torrent...just sayin’
“This is hosted by Forrest Sawyer. Is it told from a liberal perspective?”
NOPE> I’ve seen the series countless times since I was a kid in canada and it’s more pro America than today’s liberal faggotry. You will also see actors who started in the biz. Check out a very young Philip Seymour Hoffman playing Plum Martin...
You can download it from YouTube, too, with various free download programs available online.
Yes, you can too :) But sometimes Youtube Downloader doesn;t allow “certain” videos to be downloaded..
mark for later
I’ve never once had the problem with this downloader...
See “Free YouTube Download” (on right)
http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/
HOWEVER, be careful selecting the “options” (check boxes, etc) when downloading the program. Take it slow and think carefully. Otherwise they’ll add various stuff on your computer.
Thanks for the referral.
Thanks for the heads up on this. It seems like ever since the Civil War we’ve had a ton of historical and literary resources to dig into but there’s just not the historical breath and “bird’s eye view” first hand accounts of the Revolutionary War as there are the other American Wars. Or at least its harder to find. So this series will be appreciated.

Thanks. It really was a terrific series.
It is quite a good series; however, the parallels with today are frightening. We could remain united for another generation, or, with the right mistakes from someone who wants to fundamentally transform a free country into something completely different, we could enter our second civil war within an incredibly short time.
I pray that we can both protect our freedom and avoid that war, but I know which of the two is more important.
Thanks ETL. I watched a vid about the Culper Ring this morning.
