re: #71 Dark_Falcon

Thomas Jefferson was a great man, but he had major flaws. And that how he should be studied: As he really was, not as a marble myth.

I think this is one reason the whole TP doesn’t seem to appeal to blacks, Hispanics, religious minorities, or anyone with a modernist outlook. It denies history in search of myths that can be laden with near religious significance. And it hearkens back to a time when minorities were either in chains or second class citizens.
