can someone explain not voting for the Revolution? Did you not read the premise? Is it pedantic reasons? "there was no POTUS during the Rev War, so I can't vote for that" That's an obviously lame reason, but it's the only excuse I can come up with for not voting for the Rev War that makes any sense. Even if you yourself are like English or something it doesn't make any sense, the OP specifies that "you are POTUS, would you have engaged in the military action" not "do you want the US to participate in these wars", which is a very different question innit?
I kinda get why some folks don't classify the American Revolution within the same moral set as, say, World War II, or supporting the Union cause during the Civil War.
They aren't really in the same ballpark.
