[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 643477, member: 694"] The South simply lost due to a miscalculation in strategy. The South had the better military at the begining but not the manufacturing. The South took the stance of defense and not Invasion until it was to late, the mass production of the northern factories war machine and US Navy out produced/blockaded the South into submission as far as the war went. You will never get a true southern to submit to the Federalism trumping States Rights. Read Thomas Jefferson's writings as he had a lot of the same fears of federal government getting to strong. I was fortunate enough to hear how the south was really treated my Great Grandfather was in the 7th Texas Calvary at the seige of Vicksburg, my Great Grandmother was one of the last surviving widows of the Confederacy living to 104. I listened when she talked we have no idea what hard times. I have never had to eat dog dumplings or pee through a rag in a pot to save the amonia nitrate to make powder for loved ones fighting for survival and rights. [/QUOTE]
