Slavery would have ended around 1875 or so instead of 1865. The animosity of the White population towards Blacks would not have been as extreme in the south and so Jim Crow laws would never have happened and civil rights would have been fully instated by the 1940s instead of 1960's. But it is also likely that animosity between the north and the south would prevent reunification and while the north would have sided with the allies in WWII the lacking of Confederate participation would have meant we would be Speaking German and there would be no Jews or Gypsies left alive. But World War III between the Japanese and Germans would have devastated The third German Empire and who knows what that result would have been. Your characterization of Biden and Clinton is disingenuous since it was the Democrats who took over spearheading civil rights in the 1960's. Keep in mind, northern Democrats have always dominated the party and They have always been against slavery and FYI, so were most Southerners. The vast majority of Confederate soldiers wanted slavery to end even more than Unionists did. Slaves were competition for jobs and unemployment among White Southern men at the time was very high which is why recruiting them into the Confederate army was so easy.

Nancy would love that. She already has illegal Mexicans working at her vineyard in California.
Bill Clinton was overheard saying that Obama should be serving us coffee, instead of running for president. Of course YouTube pulled it.

No. The CSA would've successfully seceded, and there probably would've been another few wars in North America as other powers saw weakness and sought to claim land and resources for themselves. Odds are the CSA would've given up slavery a few decades down the line; the political pressure would be just to great to do otherwise. Depending on how it went, the US might've tried again to force reunification, and with better planning, probably would've succeeded- the CSA couldn't hope to compete on economic or population terms; their only real hope (in the event of a second war) would be in forging alliances with powerful neighbors- but there's no WAY Mexico would've sided with slaveholders, and Canada'd be too far away to help much.
If the CSA won there would be two countries between Canada and Mexico instead of one. Sure, slavery may have been forced to end from internal pressures, or at least modified greatly, but look at how the South built up it's infrastructure since then. With the current powerhouses of Atlanta, DFW, & Houston, the South has rose again.
Gone. Most of the world would probably speak russian or chinese already.
The nation would of stayed split. The south was hurting the economy for the whole. So if something didn’t change it would end up in another war. Possibly aided by other countries hurt by the slave industry. It’s like if China took a fully operational manufacturing plant and went back to 1800s due to efficiency they would take over most industries and then countries would either pay or take it over. That’s my opinion based on what I’ve learned on the subject
*couch* The Democratic party during the Civil war contained the same people, platform and supporters as the Republicans do today *cough*
Amazing how people conveniently forget the political party switch in the 1960s. What a dumbass.
A little behind in progress.
