That is not what he meant. Ironic that you think yourself morally superior yet employ deception to marginalize those that you disagree with. He was talking about the results of Federal expansion not slavery per-se. Slavery would have ended without the War and certainly if the War was needed to end slavery it was not necessary for the Fed to be expanded as such. At least try to give people the benifit of the doubt. It is people like you that are worse than Ted Nugent unless you want to claim stupidity.
No matter how you try to spin it that is what he meant... It’s like saying I wish the Nazis would have won because Germany would have more national pride…
I'm not sure how his opinion correlates with low IQ. However I disagree. I'm very glad the North but the traitorous and treasonous South in its place. It's just a shame so many had to die first.
Im in shock right now!

C'mon you really think he wants black people to be in chains and as such the country would be better off? You have got to be kidding me!

With Ted Nugent you have to put his statements in the correct context. If he didn't say some of the other nonsense you might be able to take his words at face value. But you can't because he's a known bigot... Slavery and the Confederacy are synonymous with each other. You can't have the Confederacy without slavery... 2+2=4
The ignorance of those who call themselves intellectuals is astounding.
How far we have fallen.

Whatever the case - the ^ is irrelevent to the context of his statement regarding the expansion and centralization of Federal Power as a result of the Civil War. As I said slavery would have ended, and did in all other places, without a War. That was a tangential issue used by the North. If you want to opine about ulterior motives then surely you should agree that Lincoln did not give a rats A** about slavery - he even said so - of course not in such explicit terms. Teddy may very well be a racist but that is not what this comment was about.
same insane type of thinking although on different subjects.
Second the South could have never won the way and they were not trying to "win" They wanted a treaty of peace between the two governments allowing them to exist along side of the north with slavery in tact which was one of the big reasons they cried states rights. As the north and the world moved to end the institution of slavery the south wanted to keep it alive. Now Lincoln was elected in and seen as a president hostile to that institution of the south and the states moved to separate on this issue. Now insane Ted thinks that the government that wanted to keep the institution of slavery is a good idea? Well it fits this nut jobs past rants.
