Lincoln, Hamilton, and Immigrants
In my opinion the Civil War did not occur when it did by accident. I believe that there is a reason it happened when it did because certain things had to be in place; in particular certain changes in the population were needed. Contrary to what many have been taught I believed that on its battlefields were left the remains of the United States.

America Has Always Been A Pretty Unrealistic Utopia
The United States of America is both a country and an ideal. The Declaration of Independence put forth the principle that we would be a country where "…all men are created equal" and that citizens would have certain "unalienable Rights [such as] Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." It is a declaration claiming that all citizens are entitled to certain rights under the law because some of our founders thought they were intrinsic to the human condition.

Full Citizenship Extended to American "Nationals"
January 20th (Pago Pago, American Samoa) – “While the territories of the United States debate whether they wish to be a State or not,” the President demurred, “I, unfortunately, cannot grant them the full Constitutional rights to which they are entitled due to the Supreme Court finding again and again that only some rights apply to the outlying possessions of the United States.”
