Lee's Cadets

The Sons of Confederate Veterans have organized a body known as Lee's Cadets.
"We're a historical group, non-political, non-sectional," said Keith Taylor, the cadets' adult leader.
But hear one cadet:
"It's fun and you learn the real cause for the Civil War," Mason said. "It was over the Constitution and money issues. Slavery was the last thing on the Confederates' minds."
Okay, make that "historical, political, and sectional."
