How did union general winfield scott respond to the plan of union general george b mcclellan to invade virginia from the west and assault richmond?
In the early stages of the US Civil War, Union General George B. McClellan reported to General Winfield Scott. McClellan wanted to advance his forces from the "West Virginia" area and assault Richmond from the West. General reminded McClellan that his troops were volunteers whose three month volunteer duty would expire before McClellan could find his way to Richmond. Scott also pointed out that McClellan's plan ignored logistics. It would be near to impossible to supply McClellan's troops. Ignoring logistics by a leading military graduate of West Point, remains a mystery.

What was one important step Union General George B McClellan needed to accomplish in order to have control over US military policies?
Union General George B. McClellan wanted to conduct the US Civil War in his own fashion which he believed was the correct course to take to win the war. He faced many obstacles in order to accomplish such a difficult task. He was not trying to take over the government but to redirect what he believed was an obstacle to do this. His first sights were set on the easiest targets, namely ones that were in the military where he had the most influence. Blocking McClellan was General Winfield Scott. From August to the end of October, 1861, McClellan began a systematic campaign to undermine Scott. Due to Scott's age, the easiest way for McClellan to reduce Scott was to drive him into retirement. This was ashame in that Scott was responsible for having McClellan in Washington DC in the first place. Because he and Scott had constant contact over military affairs, McClellan began to spread rumors about Scott's physical ability to retain his position, and, spread rumors about his failing mental capacities. He helped undermine Scott by ignoring him and bypassing him in the military chain of command. And he weakened Scott by being rude and standoffish. Scott did finally resign and McClellan replaced him as general in chief, a powerful position if used properly. Although Lincoln never expressed concern that his general in chief was disloyal, he cautioned McClellan that his new primary duties might impair McClellan's ability to take on two significant jobs. One was the rebuilding of the Army of the Potomac, the other was carrying on the strategic command of all the Union armies. McClellan convinced Lincoln that he could handle both jobs. In his own mind he had already taken a strong dislike of his Commander in Chief.
