I particularly like the part about not allowing access to political power to this or that group of people, based upon his own version of political correctness.

The indoctrination just runs too deep sometimes, even on FR. It’s been a very disappointing evening.

Good night.

If only the right people had been in charge at the right moment, history would've turned out so much better. All the mistakes could've been avoided and the worrld would be perfect.

And a Good Night to you, too...

People who think it's okay to enslave others are probably not the kind of people you want running the government over the long run or to have serious influence. To quote George Mason from the link you provided (thanks by the way!):

[Slavery is a] slow Poison, which is daily contaminating the Minds & Morals of our People. Every Gentleman here is born a petty Tyrant…. And in such an infernal School are to be educated our future Legislators & Rulers.[1]

Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant. [Slaves] bring the judgment of heaven on a Country. As nations can not [sic] be rewarded or punished in the next world they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes & effects[,] providence punishes national sins, by national calamities.


While I may disagree with Mason on several things, Mason was right about this country being punished by God. 600,000 men gave their lives, another 400,000 were maimed, wounded, and made sick, and the South was ruined and continuously punished for decades to follow.

What causes that indoctrination is "reconstructed history" or the "Lincoln curse".

This is what happens when the country mindless turns a President into a deity.
