Slavery-Started the Great American Tradition of Kicking the Can down the Road.

And in 1861 we ran out of road.

Look at how many towns in America were named after the great revolutionary in France named Napoleon Bonaparte. He turned out to be not such a great revolutionary after all.

Thomas Jefferson appears to be one of those questioning the greatness of Napoleon in a letter to John Norvell about the press.

General facts may indeed be collected from them, such as that Europe is now at war, that Bonaparte has been a successful warrior, that he has subjected a great portion of Europe to his will, &c., &c.; but no details can be relied on.

Robespierre is another example of a revolutionary gone very wrong.
