    Dr. Guelzo is an American treasure. Since Dr Guelzo likes sports analogies… he’s like the ‘85 bears of modern day civil war historians. Gallagher and McPherson are the Steelers and the Patriots 🤣

    I fear rule by the majority an a strong federal government. It’s a rational position to take now, let alone in Virginia in 1866.

    Good presentation. Despite a keen intellect, and a command of facts, Mr Guelzo seems incapable of truly understanding the mindset of a man like Lee, and of the Confederates, generally. This is no indictment of Mr. Guelzo, just an observation of not only him, but of almost all unionist-minded historians. We all have our shortcomings where understanding people and history are concerned.

    As to Lee’s racism, it was no worse than Charles Darwin’s. And it has been reported that when General Grant, own his world tour, was consulted by the Emperor of Japan, who was managed in a rapid modernization of his Empire, he expressed doubts about democracy, Leading the Emperor to prefer something more like that British system.
