Yes, the majority of Virginia is good solid conservative stronghold. The socialists DIMs like a cancer have taken over NVA, Charlottesville and the city of Richmond. The current Virginia governor is a racist but is accepted and forgiven by the African-Americans since he has a 'D' after his name.

I believe he used the words "hideous blot". Which rather goes against the very silly idea that everybody was hunky-dory with slavery and that we're applying modern morals to a past situation when discussing the subject.

I always know when someone arguing about the Civil War is losing because they bring it back around to someone banning "The Dukes of Hazzard." That TV show was not banned. People stopped airing it because of that flag. There's a ot of good shows from the 70s and 80s that are hard or impossible to find on TV now. Why? Tastes change. John Schneider is all over YouTube talking about that car if you're interested. Hell, I used to ove that show. Of course, I was 10 at the time

Actually on economic policies he was left of FDR.

And on social and foreign policies he was in Attila the Hun territory.

He would certainly have agreed with mtl1 that putting a statue of a black warrior in an art museum to honor black people is a symptom of cultural degeneration.

The point is divisive and hostile leftists taint and ruining totally innocent things. That show was a Prime time hit in the 1980s. And late in the Obama admin the leftist turds had to shoehorn in their slavery narrative.
