Presidential hopeful Nikki Haley did not cite slavery as a cause of the American Civil War when asked at a campaign event on Wednesday night.

She responded it was about “basically how the government was going to run."

    What do you mean. I don’t mind getting downvoted if we are discussing facts,

    The civil war was about slavery, fact number 1

      I’m not disagreeing with you, just very annoyed that if you don’t absolutely demonize the other side, you get downvoted, which you did and you were. That’s not what a healthy community does.

        I hear you. Thankfully I don’t care if I get downvotes….

        I do try to understand why I got the downvotes though, in this case I’m still not convinced.

        I think a lot of people can’t stop with the black and white, our side Good their side Bad…

        So even suggesting the other side isn’t worse than Hitler, or that our side is the fucking messiah gets downvotes, lol…
