you state that only 1 in 3 southerners in 1860 thought it was about slavery, so that means it was all about slavery?

What kind of common core mathematics is that?


No, the absolutely appalling stat is that one in three Southerners was enslaved by the other two-thirds.

And the recent link I provided states that HALF of all Southerners were either a slave, or from a slave-owning family.
