No. Civil war was not about states’ rights. It was about the Federal power to control territories, like the North West Territory which banned slavery. Republicans wanted to ban slavery from the territories. Democrats wanted to extend slavery to the territories, and intended (and attempted) to invade territories as necessary to get slavery in the territories.

Frankly, I’ll take the overt cheerleaders over the smarmy, oh-so-neutral phonies like Stephanapololis.
