I don't follow your demographic argument at all. The South wanted to a build a "Golden Circle" by incorporating all of the Latin American countries around the Caribbean, while expanding slavery into Arizona and Kansas. It demographic terms in a would be a clusterfuck.

Anyway, the South would be much better off hand Lincoln not been assassinated. Reconstruction would have been less harsh and it would not have been hijacked by robber barons. His plans for the greenback would have made the country more prosperous too.

Also Lincoln wanted to free the Blacks and give them their own homeland in Africa. It goes without saying that this would be improve the demographic situation.

I think large sectors of the country were in favor of the South over the North; proof of that is how quickly the federalist political party collapsed.

The South would have mixed up the pot, but it would have given them some sort of geopolitical clout and would have expanded their economy. Racial laws would have followed the South into Latin America and expanding the institution of slavery into Arizona and Kansas would have ensured the institutions permanence.

I am more of a fan of Crittenden's compromise over expanding the institution of slavery into Arizona and Kansas. I think the fall out of the Civil War has been that it created a situation where blacks started spreading out to the Northern cities and Northern parts of the country, which had begun with manumission in 1785. It created a clusterfuck of massive proportions(that is the emancipation proclamation and the 15th amendment) and it is something that should never be forgotten as it unleashed the Nigger hordes on the South.

It has forever traumatized the South, but there are some, and I don't think even white nationalists are strong enough to go through this process, but to basically level colored people in this country for the injustices committed against whites.

I also think it would have been better had Lincoln lived on, but I am also the one that believes it would have been better had Breckenridge won the 1860 election and George P. McClellan had won the 1864 election. He unleashed the Nigger hordes in the name of making the country more "economically prosperous."

I am a Yankee, but I consider this an act of Northern greed and avarice towards the South and a raping of her fair beauty.

It was an act of jealously and holding the South servile to itself and it is by far one of the cruelest acts that split/divided the country and has shattered the South for an eternity and given the country over to Yankee degeneracy and uncouthness.
