    Lol dude.. slavery was the main point. I actually study this stuff all the time i think i'd know. Hell i've even been to some of the places where one of the battles happened.

    Okay, I don't want to hear what your books in school tell you. You have not studied it in depth or you would know how wrong you sound. Look BEFORE the battles began. Just because you've been the battle places means nothing, thousdands of people go to the battle sites every year and most of them can't tell you who the last five presidents were. The political war is just as important as the literal one.

    Dude...seriously, it was not the main point. The north was fighting to keep their stability, they couldn't have cared less about slavery, it just made them look better to say they did. The North was fighting to preserve the union, the south was fighting for our state's rights. Slavery was a reason, but no where near the most important.

    Lincoln cared about slavery retard. and that WAS the main point of the war so stfu. At this point i'm guessing that you must live in the South part of the United States so i guess i'll let you have your way if it makes you feel better because the ONLY reason you say that is to make yourself feel better.

    I do, but I'm a federlist, so that makes that point of your argument null in void. I would have sided with the North. But dude, all you're doing is saying, "It was about slavery, stfu."
    I'm giving reasons to why I feel it is being missread. Slavery WAS an issue, but NOT the main one.

    Also, enjoy your -rep for being dissrespectful.

    Your opinion is slavery was the main issue, when if you look at it from a politcal view point, there were more issues.

    Um, yeah their were more issues i never said there weren't more issues. But, the main one was slavery. And you sound like some retarted 14 yr old that acts like he knows everything so, do us all a favor and shut up?

    I'm 15, thank you. Slavery is what tipped us over. We didn't start the war just because of slavery.
