Karl Marx and his Communist followers believed that history was to be rewritten to beat opponents and control the masses.
We know which Party has been following this Marxist Manipulation.
Fact the Democrats were the primary slave holders
The Southern Democrat created the Ku Klux Klan.
Southern Democrats killed Northern Students in Mississippi.
Democratic led police beat Martin Luther King in Atlanta and assasinated this Great American Leader.
Democrat Mayors and Governors blocked the school house doors to prevent desegregated schools.
It is our responsibility as Republicans, Conservatives Moderates and even Liberals to protect our freedoms and oust the Old Form Democrats and the New Age Communists including the one in the Oval Office who shame our name. The denigrate country and the rule of Law, to wit the CONSTITUTION!
WE MUST SPREAD THE WORD on all venues.
Well that’s nice of him to not want to leave the Democrat’s slavery history out.
This is a good chance to point out the role of the North and the Democrats in the salve trade.
Hmmmm, no outcry for the governor to include a statement
regarding state’s rights....oh that’s right the party line
is it was all about slavery.
No big deal; the malcontents didn’t vote for him anyway.
Nothing good will come of your little rant
So, is the Governor going to include the FACT that the tariff or tax on goods manufactured in the South and sold in the North wasn’t abolished until 1962?

“But the tariff, like abolition, was also a question of honor. The disingenuous arguments of the protectionists tended, like those of the abolitionists, to dwell upon the moral inferiority and stupidity of southerners in comparison with wise, righteous, industrious New Englanders. Calhoun did not engage in that type of polemic, but he replied to it, again in the Exposition: ‘We are told, by those who pretend to understand our interest better than we do, that the excess of production and not the Tariff, is the evil which afflicts us. ... We would feel more disposed to respect the spirit in which the advice is offered, if those from whom it comes accompanied it with the weight of their example. They also, occasionally, complain of low prices; but instead of diminishing the supply, as a remedy for the evil, demand an enlargement of the market, by the exclusion of all competition.’ “
[And some of you can’t understand the animosity of the South? The referenced article should be helpful.]
It’s about slavery ONLY if it’s about NORTHERN slavery over Southerners. It’s got nothing to do with color, it has everything to do with control.
Without the tariff, Wall Street would be in Richmond. And all those big banks lining the streets of NYC would be in the South, too.
Here we go. 1,500+ post thread - what was the cause of the American Civil War?
Wouldn’t that be a topic for whatever proclamation he issued for Black History Month?
It would have been funny if he had said he wanted to be non-partisan and not point out the democrat’s slavery problem.
But really, I wish he had called it “Civil War History Month”, instead of “Confederate History Month”, since people will be studying the war, not just the confederate side of the war.
and blaming it as the cause of the Civil War.
Slavery was an issue of the war but not the cause.
