I don’t think the Dimcrats cared much for Lincolns philosophy. Not like they say anyways.

You forgot Lincolns hallmark "You do not get a trial when locked up for sedition, even if there was never any basis for the charge and even if the accuser is a long time contentious rival"

Let's give the man credit for ALL of the standards of government that characterized his administration.

Lincoln is NOT the author of these.

Even Snopes has the facts on this.

Bump for reference!

Thank you for this post. Just another reason I love Lincoln.

Ah, yes, good ol’ Lincoln.

“If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.”

He was in favor of rounding up all blacks and sending them to Liberia. He was NOT in favor of freeing the slaves and letting them have equal rights. I am so sick of the Lincoln as Messiah myth that is perpetrated on this country.
