MM#138--The Impending Crisis--Liberty in the Balance
FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message
Recent events has caused us to devote this weeks two episodes to topics involving Liberty in the Balance - meaning those areas in our country, where Liberty was and is threatened.
In this second episode of this week, we review the key points leading up to the Civil War with David Potter’s excellent work, The Impending Crisis: America before the Civil War 1848 - 1861.
Key points:
- The National political parties changing into sectional factions in the years leading up to the Civil War and virtually ignoring each other was extremely harmful.
- The voters in the south never saw Lincoln campaign anywhere in the south and so the worst of the worst image was fictitiously created of Lincoln.
- The South firing on Fort Sumpter couldn't have been a more provocative act for a variety of reasons.
