For the South there was a lot of protecting State's rights and the fact that Washington was tied to advancing the industrial North versus the far more agricultural South ...
Free versus Slave was an issue but only to effect that it was the North dictating to the South how they should handle their business ...
I'm far from advocating slavery (in fact to the contrary) but with the way farms, etc were in those times (heavy manual labor), that's what it was.
Slavery goes back way back into history and was generally what happened to a people when conquered by others in war ...
It's easy to go back and retro QB ... but times were far different than ... we've advanced significantly in the 150 years since then ... just like we will 150 years from now
