This is a thought experiment to illicit an emotional response. Answer as quickly as possible. Please vote before researching or reading responses. Which name evokes an emotion? Why?

Neither evoked any emotion. I do not know anything about Wilson, however history has repeatedly spoken of how Lee was the superior war strategist of the day.

Maybe we should stop trying to evoke negativism and division, and focus on coming together as a nation...one people, Americans.

The recent debate on the Confederate Flag is the catalyst for my post. Most democrats and some republicans demand the removal of the flag and Confederate memorials. Wilson a democratic president debuted the pro-KKK film Birth of a Nation in the White house. He was a segregationist and yet we see no movement to have his name stricken from schools that appear in a lot of inner cities. I bring it up because of education. I don't believe they are teaching people the facts any longer, they just promote agendas. When it comes to racism and/or the confederate, dixiecrat legacy, both should be despised.
