17.1.17

Robert E Lee.

State rights makes a lot of sense to me. I could never figure out what the war was about. The Constitution was a contract. The South felt the North had violated the terms of the contact by interfering with local laws.{And the Sumpreme Court agreed. That should have been the end of the diagreement. } So they thought they were justified because of breach of contract.
I think we ought to celebrate the birthday of Robert E Lee. January 19. It should be a national holiday not just for the South but the North also because it means the great importance of the  Constitution of the U.S.A..
[Dred Scott was decided in 1857. And after all, that is the job of that court to decided what is constitional. The North decided to ignore the Constitution.]
