No matter that the histories of the war were written either by Northerners or Southerners sympathetic to Northern interests/causes. So IOW, it was all about slavery...lol

Ample evidence of the Tariff being the main reason for the war to anybody who wants to actually look at what the northern politicos were saying in the 1840's and 50's. They could have given a rat's ass about the plight of the black man.

Sounds a lot like today.
