the convention refused to add a platform plank calling for a federal guarantee of slave property in every single U.S. territory. That is, they bailed on their party, nominated Breckinridge, and thereby elected Lincoln because they did not get an unprecedented expansion of federal power that they had demanded. It cannot be stressed enough that the secessions were over an unmet demand for a federal guarantee of slavery. Here, read this; it'll help.
and still the war was caused because the south did not want to submit to liberal central govt. Do you understand now?
Have you ever in your whole life said anything that made any sense to anyone?
dear, if you feel conservatism does not make sense please say why or admit as a typical liberal you lack the IQ to be here.
