You are as true a patriot as your brave Confederate ancestor. Your song is a genuine achievement of the heart and mind! I salute you, my fellow compatriot.
@PHG37VA God Bless You my friend you know that a song is special whenever you write it and you cry while writing it. How blind people that do not know the true meaning of the WBTS. Check out the video The Moriff Tariff and The truth About Slavery on YouTube and thanks again! God Bless Dixie
It has a special meaning for me too my ancestor was captured at Ft. Blakely and spent 6 months at ship isle prison so it is a tribute to all who served [><]
@12FlyMe "and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything." That's the rest of it, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH KICKING SLAVE OWNERS TO DEATH. idiot
@12FlyMe I read the rest of the speech. "and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior,"
@12FlyMe no and once again your constant use of CHILDISH language proves you know nothing on the issue.
"I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races - that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people" ABRAHAM LINCOLN. READ IT AND WEEP.
Yes I am the writer of this it is a tribute to my great-great grandfather Lewis H. Miller 1st Sgt. Co.H Fla Inf. Thans for the comment I love my heritage
Lincoln ---- I have never said anything to the contrary, but the negro IS entitled to all the rights enumerated in the Declaration of Independence,—the right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The negro is not my equal in many respects, in color, perhaps not in intellectual and moral endowments; but in the right to eat the bread without the leave of anybody else, which his own hand earns, he is my equal, and the equal of Judge Douglas, and the equal of every other man.
Jefferson Davis offered the Union ALL slaves to be freed in exchange for independence. If the Union was so abolishionist and if they were so caring for the slaves and they were so humanitarian, why didn't they say yes?
SpookeyR if you actually would stop being a close minded liberal and actually READ the Confederate constitution you would realize yes it protected slavery but the drafters of the constitution wanted slavery to die out so they BANNED any future transportation, and trading slaves for other slaves. So in a sense that also benifited slave families from having their families split.
Not exactly, many souther politicians acknowledged and supported the fact that slavery would eventually die out. I certainly would have supported that notion. The fact is slavery was NOT a war issue until the Union realized their invasion was being halted by confederate brigades, skirmishers, and guerrillas. With Britain pledging support to the Confederate States Lincoln needed propaganda to sway them from support. He devised the emancipation proclamation.
No, they knew that slavery would die out if it was not allowed to expand and that's why they succeeded from the Union! They saw slavery as the mainstay of their economy and they weren't going to let it go. Lincoln wanted to abolish slavery but, knew that pushing to abolish slavery at the stroke of a pen would almost guarantee war with the south. So, he sought to abolish slavery by not allowing it to expand into territories that were not yet states.
Lincoln said in 1861 his war was to preserve the Union he did not want to tamper or abolish slavery in any way. Do some research on Lincoln. BTW you spelled secession wrong. The Confederate Constitution abolished trading, buying and transporting slaves as well as banning any slavery in the territories. I am going to make a TRUCE. I disagree with you, you disagree with me, I can NOT change your mind you cannot change my mind. Why don't we just agree to disagree instead of fight?
LOL! Equality of the black man? Your so stupid it's not even funny, Lincoln stated in his 1858 Douglasds Debates that he didn't want blacks to be allowed to do the following
#1-hold office
#2-allowed to vote
#3-intermarry with whites
#4-have social and political equality.
'
Lincoln didn't support equality for blacks you tool.

Cool song but if the south had won the civil war i bet they would all die and fall back to the north since their economy was all agricultural and no industrial...
????? Lol. The reason the North would not allow the south to succeed was as they said "who would pay for the Government?".. The south had a much stronger economy.
You have a great voice and I love the song! Thank you for expressing what so many Southern people are feeling. We are losing our Confederate heritage. People need to wake up and raise the flag again before it's too late. I've saved the video to my favorites.
