The vast majority of southern men who fought in the war did NOT own slaves THAT is a cold hard fact. They fought because they were invaded. The history books fail to mention that...
The fat-cat Southern politicians lied to the vast majority of southerner's and made em' think it was all about freedom and liberty.
Wouldn't be the first time, or last, that politicians have lied to the public in order to garner public support for a war that was beneficial to the politicians.
