@Kincajou ActuallY, "separation of church and state" appears no where in our Constitution. What it says is "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.", meaning: Congress is not permitted to legistlate whatsoever on anything pertaining to religion. This includes writing legislature PROHIBITING the inclusion of God's name in our national anthem, or "In God We Trust" on our dollar bills, or sculptures of the 10 Commandments at courthouses. Period.

He doesn't mention what the New Jersey School board is teaching. If New Jersey students are learning about WWII or Prehistoric America , for example, it makes as much sense to mention George Washingston as it does to mention Napoleon.

What in the world has happened to New Jersey school board???

Actually only the wealthy owned slaves and sold and trafficked them.
Poor people couldn't own slaves.
(In the 13 colonies)
I completeley understand your point, but my point is that President George Washington had the chance to abolish slavery in the new Republic, and extend the virtues of liberty to all men... But he didn't.
It took another brave American to do so, long after.

@gundamWWW everyone owned slaves back then, even democrats like myself and black people too. How do you think slavery started? Black people in Africa sold other black that they deemed "worthless" to society.
