Poll: Not all agree about slavery’s role in Civil War
By Samantha Ehlinger, Tribune News Service
WASHINGTON — A century and a half after the war ended, Americans still fundamentally disagree about slavery’s role in the Civil War and what to teach schoolchildren about it, according to a new McClatchy-Marist Poll.
Fifty-four percent of respondents think slavery was the main reason for the Civil War. A sizable minority, 41 percent, do not think slavery was the main reason, the national survey found.
Echoing that divide, they also are split over what to teach children. A majority, 54 percent, believe schools should teach that slavery was the main reason for the war; 38 percent think they should not teach that.
Cue the crazies…
Spelling nanny says: should be “Slavery’s Role . . .” , not “roll”!
The liberals known as Democrats never have stopped slavery regardless if it was human bondage in historic times or the enabling of the current trafficking of people for crimes and drugs through the refusal to close the open borders or by government slavery through the ever growing welfare system that must be ended once and for all before it sinks what little is left. Time for a right turn in the country and very soon.
I don’t know, but somehow being hooked on government hand outs for survival and being able to be sold aren’t even close to being the same. Or maybe slavery, like the holocaust, was just fake.
Educate yourselves.
