I purposefully didn't start this thread because I knew how it would go on here.

The issue isn't whether it is 100% true or not. Its a complex issue. More than a soundbite on stage can give.

Its an issue of FRAMING and how to answer in a Presidential Primary in 2023, in New Hampshire.

"Democrats loved owning slaves and started a war to preserve that, and a Republican President freed them and preserved our Union"

Even if you don't believe that, its a fricking layup

This statement ^^^ is a cop out and by doing so have admitted that secession was in part for slavery and the war was not. You are trying to shift the narrative.
