Great point. I just think the Civil War could have been averted with a little patience. Slavery was obviously an abomination, so I think if the average Joe in the south had realized that was what the war was actually about, he would would have stood up and opposed slavery.

But since the poor sucker thought he was opposing invasion from the north, he fought back. As would you or I.
