Are you trying to "win"?

With all of your respective ideologies flying around, I've had to ask myself if you're actually trying to "win". Do you have an understanding that we are one human race of people? Is competition really needed when we, as humans, have escaped such things as animalistic instnict with logic and justice?

Do you have ethics or morals that are absolute, or do they only apply to you and yours? I'm not talking about "Let's be one World"- I am merely questioning whether you all feel more fulfilled by treating others negatively for whatever reason or if you'd rather help everyone and anyone you can.

It's not a directive, but a question.

Aum Shantih Shantih Shantih

They weren't fighting over slavery. They were fighting over unfair taxation and redistribution and other things. They would have been stupid to fight over salve ownership. A constiutional amendment banning slave ownership would have to have 3/4 of the States to ratify it and half of the States would certainly not have ratified it.
