@amerika @IceCubeSoup @Richard @andreas @newman You haven't provided one source or argument that reflects any familiarity with the Civil War period.

The links you posted earlier, for example, are all related to contemporary U.S. politics.

Prove your assertion "[w]ithout the Irish vote, the civil war never would have happened." Once again, you're simply posting conclusory statements backed by nothing (and ones that, in fact, conflict with the actual history).
