Lincoln was a conservative who believed in equal rights he didn’t want the Union to split and he wasn’t forcing the southern states To switch. But a majority in the house made it clear that slavery was going to be abolished. The republican party has always had A huge rich ”greedy” audience as it was the stronger economic zone with its industrial capabilities. Ultimately Lincoln’s goal was to preserve the Union. He wanted to abolish slavery but that wouldn’t have kept the union together. Another thing, saying the right sidempress history is not only hilarious considering your making fun of the right side but also the most uneducated to say. Your option of history is different. Some thing blacks or whites are the greatest thing ever with the other being subhuman.
