"The biggest mistake they made, however, was the screwing of Benedict Arnold - after Arnold (disobeying dumb orders from a political general) won the decisive battle at Lexington."
I agree with everything you say ... except I think that you meant "Saratoga".

I think that you meant "Saratoga". Oops, and thank you.
You're right. Didn't notice it till now. Was thinking, then and now, about West Point Museum, where Arnold is credited with the Saratoga win.
