You used a letter that Lincoln wrote. News flash. Lincoln was not a confederate. The cornerstone speech written by the loser south explains why they were going to war.Obviously you didnt read my post. i think you just want to write this all down just to say you did something. Lincoln was not a confederate. Your claim was that no one knew why the losers in the south went to war. i corrected your false assessment by telling you the losers put into their documents and speeches why they were going to war.Then why did Lincoln wait a year and a half into it to free them? Slavery was a secondary issue at best. Not everyone that fought in the war had slaves and they had their reasons for fighting on the side that they did. It was the insidious influence from outside sources that created the resentment and hostility. America at the time owed a huge debt of gratitude to Russia for keeping England and France at bay.....how did America "thank" Russia? By financing Lenin and Trotsky in order to overthrow the Tsar and make it a communist nation and they made money on construction and factory building. Motto of the story, never let friendship stand in the way if there's a buck to be made.If you look up what the word "emancipation" means you will see that it fits with your view of the 14th amendment. However interesting this is it still doesnt mean the southern losers didnt go to war over slavery.No I didnt miss that part but what does that have to do with the reasons the loser confederates when to war? Lincoln was the president and CIC of the union army not the confederates.
The Morrill Tax, state sovereignty over Federal authority, England and France promising to help the South when the plan was for France to get the south and England to get back their original colonies. The Jesuits told the southerners that help would be arriving. Only the intervention of the Tsar of Russia kept England's army in Canada and France's arming in Mexico.
“The war would never have been possible without the sinister influence of the Jesuits.” Abe Lincoln
The ironic part is the Civil War ended up not freeing any slaves at all but made us all slaves with the 14th amendment. They just transferred slavery from the private sector to the public sector. The Act of 1871 ended constitutional law and began a corporate constitution which made us subjects of this corporate entity.
Obviously you don't comprehend the part of that letter I highlighted. You corrected nothing because your level of understanding concerning the war is simplistic when it was more complicated than just that.
