I changed more than I thought I would.

I must admit I am kind of surprised to see that someone who has hinted at being an Irish Catholic would go near the National Republican and Whig parties.  I guess that when it comes to one or two issues (slavery and Indians) where those parties on the whole were at best barely more tolerable than Democrats has more weight than the vicious racism and Catholicphobia being waged by said parties to defend voting privileges for a "purer" and "harder working" land owning elite not that supported them.

Some of you really need to learn your history.

What's your opinion of the Specie Circular and the Panic of 1837, Mecha?
