: one thing that *might've* made a difference (& certiantly would've been different than the War Between The States) is *if* the British had thrown their full-weight behind Tecumseh.

Actually, Champ, that seems to me to be MUCH like the war between the States, in a way. Just like the South anxiously hoped for European support, so too could one more great victory had perhaps swayed the Brits to fully enter the fray ... after all, the War of 1812 seems a half-hearted one, at best, on their part. If a fully united Indian confederacy was teamed with the British to stop American expansion ... who knows?
