    A lot of baggage, or only the slavery one? Most the "founding fathers" had slaves, even Benjamin F who later was against it.

    So he killed some people dueling, that's fair game.

    Genocide? Certain parts of some tribes were moved, while others are still in their original lands to this day. Followed orders, that's for sure.

    Everyone I know liked the Sacajawea dollar, yet the government claimed the coin was unpopular and citing Federal Reserve bank lack of orders for it. Idiots, of course the way to get U.S. onto that coin would be to not let the banks choose, they would be given coins and not $1 notes, period-end-of-story.

    I'm sure we'll have a new treaty where the swiss will report any internet user exhibiting certain behavioral patterns on swiss servers to the USA. Funny how most of the governments of earth lube up their bungholes and bend and spread it for the U.S. of A-holes.

    "Under the new treaty, U.S. authorities will be able to ask the Swiss to disclose names of U.S. taxpayers at a bank who exhibit certain "behavioral patterns" indicating tax evasion under U.S. law, such as trying to conceal the ownership of the account through a trust.
