I don't know a whole lot about the war or even Lee himself. I've never looked at it as a source of pride, just a cool fact to spill when people are talking about the CW.
I went to the Carnton Plantation tour a few years ago, and the guide we had was amazing and really piqued my interest in learning more. But procrastination. :/

Jefferson Davis was a disaster as CSA President. I think General Lee would have made a far better one. It was strength of character alone that got him through the war years in the field he had so many health problems that he probably doesn't face living at home in Richmond.
Albert Sidney Johnston as overall commander in the West, Joe Johnston commanding the Army of Northern Virginia Beauregard in place of AP Hill and Jackson alive and in charge of Ewell's Corps.
ANYONE but Braxton Bragg in Tennessee, and Forrest over all cavalry units in the West.
