Actually, this isn't accurate the confederates were not going against the constitution as the North implemented harsh unfair taxes on exports for southern goods and therefore impeding the free market forcing the south to sell it's raw materials to Northern Factories.

The merits of Slavery doesn't make sense, considering if Lincoln had wanted to free the Slaves from the very Beginning, Why did he wait three years into the most bloodiest war that, almost destroyed the very Union itself? Why not enacted the emancipation proclamation from Day 1?

Lincoln actions confirms many historians ideals that the many Southern States outside of South Carolina (really upset about slavery lol) viewed this not as a Union all following the constitutions, but more as a dictatorship led by a few corrupt states.

This concept, is exactly the argument Texas made to SCOTUS and they didn't want to hear, that's why I will be whistling Dixie come 1/6/21.

Not too sure about American Educational Institutions....
