Just as Jefferson Davis was willing to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of southerners to defend the Confederate Constitution. You know the Constitution that permanently
codified Slavery for 3 million people.

The war wasn’t about slavery. Go research some more and get back to me with your findings. Once you’re up to speed, we can talk about it.

The United States constitution codified it for all the Slaves in North America, not just the ones in the South.

To complain about how the Southerners wanted legal slavery spelled out so specifically in their constitution after people constantly tried to bend and break the protection of slavery provision in the US Constitution, is rather hypocritical.

The US Constitution recognized legal slavery, and protected slavery in Article IV, Section 2. So don't be the pot calling the kettle black.

You need to accuse the South of something that wasn't already legal and protected in the Union for "Four Score and Seven Years".
