Constutution of the C.S.A.

I found this to be an interesting document. I probably would have been a good Confederate with my strong "States Rights" view.

want something else to read.....

Common misconception is that the war between the states is over....it actually isn't, there was never any surrender to the union forces by the CSA, the only surrender was by Gen. Lee, which was only for the battle of appomattox, but did not actually reperesent the entire CSA, nor president Davis.

Apparently they're short one words too. A lot of the links don't work, and the ones that do work have mistakes like this:

From http://www.confederatestatesofameric...nce-bureau.htm

Beginning in May of 2000 key people in the Southern Independence movement began keeping notes on those who seemed to be doing the greatest damage to the movement by misdirection and by being agents provocateur and who were always attempting to keep the pot boiling so to speak and create internal strife. The intelligence activities continued within the Federation of States under several internal reports and memos were written with conclusions during the summer of 2004. Finally, on November 1, 2004, the Constitutional Court of the C.S.A. issued an order creating the Confederate Intelligence Bureau (CIB). Immediately, the CIB began summarizing their intelligence into the reports shown below for public release as well as several internal memos.PURPOSE: The purpose of the CIB is obvious. It will have the duties similar to the F.B.I. and C.I.A. of the Federal Union. During occupation the CIB will have no actual law enforcement powers and will report to the Constitutional Court until the national Government is re-staffed and a President has been elected by the Senate, whereupon they will then also report to and be under the control of the President. Once the Council of Confederate State Governors is formed, they shall also be privileged to receive Intelligence Reports as well as the Senate, but the CIB shall ultimately be under the control of the President of the Confederate States of America.

The CIB will be operated by the "Director."
