States right is just a BS excuse. Succession is treason, no buts about it. Saying the South will rise again, is treason.
For sake of argument (not agreeing with you though) let's say that what you say is correct. The right to seceded from the Union of states was in the state constitutions from the time they were written during the founding of this country. You libs seem to hate the south, but you have no problem with the constitution being subverted by Lincoln in forcing the southern states to remain in the Union.
I am a repub, I do not agree with slavery, but I think Lincoln was wrong in forcing the southern states to stay with the union when it was their right to leave the Union whenever they wanted. Slavery would have still ended in the south, it may have taken a little longer though.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
