Jaffa is is honest enough to avoid the plethora of myths that abound about the period leading up to the Civil War. While almost every myth has the South at a daunting disadvantage -- in reality, the South almost every advantage at first. If the South had simply not got macho about Fort Sumter, LIncoln would have no choice but to let the slave rapers and child selling lunatics rip the country in two - and much worse -- spread slavery throughout the rest of the US by violence.
someone ought to sit that man down with a copy of atlas shrugged. god is the author of nature, forsooth. I subbed this channel because you had interviews with intelligent thinkers; this interview, however, is a waste of time.
@dannidandannikins: Harry Jaffa is a genius. I think you need to rethink your assessment on him. Read his books and his essays and you'll find a man who grasps Lincoln's priniciples better then others.

@dannidandannikins saying Jaffa should read Randy Ayn is like telling Shakespeare he needs to read the Twilight novels to see what real drama is...
