You picked one humdinger of an example.

We pulled out of the Philippines and gave them their independence, after their rose up against us. We realized it wasn't worth keeping. In essence, we did exactly what I'm saying we should have did with the South.

Though to be fair, had we had allowed the Confederate States of America to continue to exist as independent country, militarily the United States wouldn't have been in a much worse position globally, especially during the subsequent wars, such as the Spanish-American War and WW I & WW II.
