For one thing, a lot of people are aware that Lincoln was a white supremacist. And people are generally aware that post-war northerners got very friendly very quickly with Jim Crow - segregation of races in the South by law and custom; segregation of the races in the North by custom and sometimes by law.

Wow. If you're that down on Lincoln for white supremacy and the North for racial discrimination then you must really hate the Confederate leaders and the South in general for those very same reasons.

My point is Republicans are not going to be able to successfully Play the Race Card against Democrats. Lincoln is one reason.

Republicans need a better strategy. Trump was not my first choice but he is right now putting on a clinic on how to destroy Democrats.
