   If we can get to re-evaluating this part of history, we'll be in a good place.

     @sickburnbro a great book on fdr. you can get the audiobook if you search around. I would recommend the octopus first. but the Red Network is about fdr and his cabinet.

     The canonization of FDR is as disgusting as that of Lincoln
     They were both the great American destroyers of their respective centuries

     @jb @mjdigspigs nope - a marriage should be a union that shouldn't be broken.

     are you referring to a shotgun wedding?
     Regardless, I believe that is an apples and oranges comparison

     a union at gunpoint is not a union

     @mjdigspigs @jb I'm not saying it should be the same type of union, but I also think they weren't just throwing words around when they used 'union' - and it's worth thinking about.
     
     Just like there are valid reasons that the church has accepted for divorce, there should be valid reasons for something like this.

     @jb @sickburnbro And, if we are going to compare to marriage, you can't change the rules without all parties consenting to the rule change.

     True
     Until death do us part
     But that is not the sort of union the states entered
     Theirs was a cooperative for mutual benefit
