Jerks in History

[L Verge]

See what I mean about continuing our divisions by judging people who have been dead for over 150 years? Why can't we follow the words that Lincoln preached about restoring the Union? He wasn't talking about just readmitting states to the Union; he had much deeper ideals and hopes than that. And, this continuous referring back to the evils of the past does nothing to assist us in the present and future.
