Gale Norton has it wrong. Todays "Civil Rights" groups have it wrong. The history books have it wrong (intentionally wrong). The crowned heads and ruling classes of Europe rightly feared the powerful and dynamic America that was capturing the imagination of the people of the world. By 1840, America had become a powerful magnet which was attracting not only the attention of the world, but some of the best intellect and talent of the "old world". The governments and financial cabals of the old world did not want to see America become a single monolithic political/military entity expanding across the whole North American Continent. Rather, they sought to see America become many seperate countries as was/is the situation in Europe. They fomented several plots and operations to try to accomplish their goal. The American Civil War was in fact one of their schemes....and it nearly succeeded. Yes, the Slavery Issue and State's Rights were whipped up to divide and incite the American People. There are always popular and highly visible reasons why wars are fought. The real reasons are very different from those written about in the mass media and history books.
