At the time of the civil war to the average American, it wasn't about slavery. It was about the economy. However, there was a large number of American who was fighting against slavery and an equally large number fighting to keep it.

The posts ( here , here ) attribute to Lincoln the words: "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it" and to Lee the quote: "There is a terrible war coming and these young men who have never seen war cannot wait for it to happen, but I can tell you, I wish that I owned every slave in the south, for I would free them all to avoid this war." They are accompanied by the caption, "Two quotes you won't see in school.

President Eisenhower kept a portrait of Robert E. Lee on the wall in his office and referred to Lee as one of the "four top Americans of the past". But don't take my word for it, look it up on YouTube.

Rosie you need to stop riding the fence. You have made comments regarding the south many times and how Robert E Lee was a good general. So I would say you and Trump have that in common.

Lee was a great general that fought for an evil cause. The same can be said for Rommel.

Because of his reputation as one of the finest officers in the United States Army, Abraham Lincoln offered Lee the command of the Federal forces in April 1861. Lee declined and tendered his resignation from the army when the state of Virginia seceded on April 17, arguing that he could not fight against his own people.
And went straight and fought against his own people. and lost.
