One cannot realistically have a General Lee without the CBF. OTOH, they should use a '67 VW with a drunk driver and call it the Ulysses S. Grant.

Grant was not a drunk. That is a neo-confederate myth.

It Grant was a great American hero. Grant was the most popular, loved, revered American behind Washington & Lincoln for 100 years.

It is not necessary to attack one myth with another.
