What was the extent of the damage to the Confederacy made by Jefferson Davis when he vetoed a bill to appoint a general in chief in 1862?
It's difficult to pinpoint the extent of the damage caused by Jefferson Davis' veto to create the position of general in chief. However, with that said, it's clear that governing the Confederacy and in a defacto manner being the Confederate general in chief divided his large responsibilities. As president he was a political leader of course, and clearly, at times his military decisions on appointing Confederate generals were sometimes political decisions rather than military ones. As an aside, US President Lincoln appointed general in chiefs, the reality, however, was that he was much like Jefferson Davis by becoming far to involved in military operations. This caused problems among his military leaders and created political critics on his methods of handling the Union war effort.
