    I’m allowing the above bit of ranting insanity to remain here in the comments section for entertainment purposes only. I have had my share of lunatics trying to post comments on my videos, and I typically do not allow them, but I found myself unable to deny this one. It’s too priceless.

    You, sir, have reached unparalleled heights in gibbering babblespeak. Kudos!

    They say George Washington Carver was the smartest Black Botanist of all Time. Did hundreds of things with the Peanut. Making Peanut Butter was not one. So Name one thing He did with a Peanut? Nothing. He is just somebody trying to hide. He is Ulysses S Grant.
    He gets on the side of Good so he can make sure that Good Loses. Because Stonewall Jackson was the Black Man. First folks of a tribe are mostly Black. Last family is mostly Irish. Mostly Cop. They say No cop or slave can be smarter the G

    Grant did NOT out gun lee. He used strategy and wit. He knew that the reason the other generals had been failing was because they would retreat after every defeat. He kept marching on and driving back the rebels. He did out-think lee because Lee did not know a way to stop him..

  7. eringobragh915 Says:

    Think about that, folks. Every Union general who came before Grant outnumbered and outgunned Lee and had more access to supplies than Lee did and so forth. None of THEM beat Lee. Obviously it takes something more than that, and Grant had it while the others didn’t.

    The Overland …
    The Overland Campaign was a war of maneuver. The Petersburg Campaign did turn out to be a war of attrition, but that wasn’t Grant’s original plan. Grant was in it to win it, that is what makes him better than the guys who came before him. Lee beat all those guys. The one he couldn’t beat was Grant. Grant outmaneuvered Lee to Petersburg & thus won the Overland Campaign despite tying or losing every battle. The other guys ALL outgunned Lee, but only GRANT outmaneuvered him.

    i was just taken aback by the out think comment Grant wasnt afraid of Lee which was probably the most important factor in his victory but he dint out think him he out gunned him. im not saying that he wasnt great, i personaly think the battle of champion hill was the first real nail in the confederate coffin I just dont think winning a war of attrition as the overland campain was proves you are a better general

    Cold Harbor was what happened when Grant tried to turn over direct control of the army to the people under him… never made that mistake again.

    He might also be the only general to win a campaign without winning any of the battles involved: Wilderness, Cold Harbor, Spotsylvania. Two draws and a loss, yet Grant wins the campaign because he drives Lee all the way back to Richmond. Beginning of the end.

    Actually Sherman seemed to require a rather gentle, understanding approach, according to those who dealt with him… he was very much a self-starter, really too much.

    i said before that dealing with someone like Sherman wouldve required a pit bull type of approach! but dealing with Grant would have required more patience and brain work to nail his superior mind! and his army!!

    It disgraces me how little America appreciates Grant. I am reading his memoirs. Long live the Union, and the memory of general and president Ulysses Simpson Grant.

    Yes, but being conscripted to free the slaves was what they were angry about. They envisioned free blacks surging north to take their low-wage jobs away from them.

    Horse hockey! The New York draft riots were in direct response to the provisions in the 1st. Conscription Ac, which allowed men drafted to pay either $300 (which the poor could not afford) or supply a substitute as a “commutation fee” to procure exemption from service. The immigrant and poor populations of NY rose up mostly out of the 6th ward against this. While it was true that blacks were targeted by these groups it is not true that lynchings were common place in the North…

    (Part 1) Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation helped to precipitate New York’s draft riots (July 11-16, 1863) whereat 100’s of innocent blacks were killed (even a black orphanage was torched). There was no love for Negroes north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Indeed, the incidents of lynchings, per capita, were often higher in the Union. The European powers saw Lincoln’s pronouncement as a plea for plantation Negroes to slaughter their absent masters’ wives & children.
