Judging History (branch off from election thread)

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

It started almost immediately. In New Hampshire for example, all white men could vote as early as 1792.

But wasn't finished until 1860, and then there's still blacks and women. By contrast, Blacks were never denied the vote in England.

I'm not debating your right to badmouth Washington, only the logic behind it.

The logic is, these men were not exactly nice people.

We fought a war. They fought on the side of the enemy. We killed them. I do not see a problem here.

You took their land, gave them diseases, then burned their remaining villages, man woman and child.

Couldn't be picky once the Revolution began, though it was too late by then.

Not at all, the point is that Washington failed to secure a regular commission but other American Colonists did succeed before and during the revolution. We were talking about megalomania before.
