Quote:Lincoln wanted to preserve the Union, he said he didn't care if it meant freeing all the slaves or not freeing the slaves his only purpose was to preserve the Union by force if necessary. 

 

No one deny's slavery was an issue of division, it was not THE issue, it was weather states where free to leave the union. There was slave states on the union side as well.

 

I can link all kinds of quotes from Lincoln talking through out the conflict he was no champion of black people. That's revisionist history. 
 

And I can link quotes of the succession statements from many southern states where they explicitly stated that slavery was THE issue. Do you want me to do so?
