Remember Jeff Davis?
Remember Jeff Davis?
It hasn't been easy getting people excited about celebrating the 200th birthday of that tall, gaunt, bearded, Kentucky-bred president who was born in a log cabin and went on to lead his people through a bloody civil war.

No, not Abraham Lincoln. It's that other tall, log cabin-born Kentuckian, Jefferson Davis, whose 200th has turned out to be something of a lost cause. picked by 2manyusernames 8 months ago

It was another time and place...a country divided. But, still an important part of this country's history. Thank you for posting this.

The Civil War was a sad time in our history, and frankly, I've read to much to every consider it black and white, in any way (no pun intended, really).

In war, the winner write the history books.

But down with slavery, and all that.
