That is another issue........ I don't wanna discuss that @ the moment........

My point, is simply about what I quoted- I believe that is simply bull shit.......



It was not predicated on the will of the general populace, about 1/3 did not want to rebel............

Once the landed gentlemen were able to bribe & fire up the ppl they got some participation but many of them felt betrayed when it was all said & done... & I repeat, this was not a mass movement & after their services they couldn't even vote...........

Those that organized the rebellion & had the most to gain were the elites, the landed aristocracy...
Funny I was in Williamsburg Va. during the Thanksgiving holiday and my wife was reading at one of the historical locations how women & slaves did not have a vote & ONLY 'White property owners' where given rights during the formation of this nation.

I was quietly bemused & said interesting isn't it....
