CSA Constitution is really explicit

Section 9 - Limits on Congress, Bill of Rights

1. The importation of negroes of the African race from any foreign country other than the slaveholding States or Territories of the United States of America, is hereby forbidden; and Congress is required to pass such laws as shall effectually prevent the same.

2. Congress shall also have power to prohibit the introduction of slaves from any State not a member of, or Territory not belonging to, this Confederacy.

4. No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed.

got this at least

13. A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

i think the main reason I could never stand to go through school in the North would be hearing "The Civil war was about slavery"

those lines make it seem like it was a major part

it's such a pervasive lie, that started in the 80s/90s

i always heard the civil war had nothing to do with slavery

"nothing" is a stretch but you had a good teacher than

fighting for states rights, which Lincoln ended by expanding federal power greatly

and died before he could revert if he was going to

are the section 9 slavery restrictions only applying at a national level?

Lincoln was on the ballot in 4 southern states

you kind of lose the right to govern, when you quite purposefully don't run in 50% of the country, because you "know you can win" with a Northern strategy

without a mandate to govern

why the fuck should any state stay in the union

tyranny by majority

for as divided as our country is now

every state (for the most part) is 40%-60% for either side

I don't get how not running in southern states even makes sense

electorally

the South was fucked

why not throw your name in down there anyway

Because Lincoln wanted to send a message (his party did at least)

that the South was going to be under their boot, unless they reform

they held out the offer that they'd mantain slavery (Lincoln ran on keeping the institution as is)

but the veiled threat that is the South stepped out of line, they were done

wasn't one of the founding principles of the Republican party emancipation?

the emancipationists were an influencing factor

in the North at least

But since the Republicans had one unified platform, (unlike whigs/Dems)

slavery was to be mantained

and even among their party, it was a minority opinion

what was fairly certain, was halting the expansion of slavery

outlawing the atlantic slave trade (which the South supported)

oh, and ending the right of return for escaped slaves

that was the third one
