1. I've posted that page in comic forums.
I love that Twain speech from Cap during the height of the Civil War.

I makes since that the TBers and BB would go after the real Cap. He was created as and remains a New Deal Democrat.

What Cap said fits best:

"I don't fight for the government, I fight for the Dream."

3. Cap has always stood up for principles


When the country went to far, he opposed it with the registration act, and got his ass beat

6. Cap was good in it, but I loathed that story
because that hack writer Mark Millar decided to turn Jack Kirby's creations Reed Richards and Tony Stark into fascists

As a kid who grew up on the Fantastic Four, it pissed me off
