When George Santayana warned, “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it” he did not mean exactly in every detail. We are not going to have a re-enactment of the War between the States.

I don't think that leadership of the sort or with the character of those who led the Confederacy either politically or militarily is there to do so today, but it's at least possible that it could develop, as such Confederate examples as Cleburne and Forrest did on that first go-around.

But that may be a mixed blessing, in that without such leadership, individual hotspots of conflict may particularly develop, and without a unified state or national command, it may get pretty difficult to get such things to abate once begun.

But I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see symbols of the Confederacy become rallying flags for some in the days to come. And possibly, the uniforms and unit designations and guidons of regiments from long ago as well.

I recommend a subdued version of this old classic for the Constitutionalists/Patriots/Good Guys:
