    Think about Lincoln’s Gettysburg address for a minute.

    …conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal…

    Which is a big fat lie. True only if you were a white male landowner.

    If the union has not been founded on slavery then there wouldn’t even have been a civil war to win/lose.

    The founding fathers as a group were quite happy with slavery, racism, and sexism.

    That’s what the USA was founded on, that is the legacy it maintains today.
