Obama said “put the confederate flag in a museum, not the state house” In April of 2007. I really like this quote a lot in comparison to John McCain’s quote. I feel like the confederate flag is a piece of history that should be remembered, but not in practical use. I feel surprised that states would even still won’t this flag up; I hope that everyone is aware that the south lost. Also that we are a much better country because the north won, so why fight to display a flag of the rightfully losing side in the civil war?
