A slave is a slave is a slave. Not sure what the heck you meant by that though.but the North owned slaves and still owned them after the war. Maybe the south was more adamant about it, but the north had them as well. It was the practice of the country at the time agreed?and ended up killing quite a few americans eh?You're right. Lincoln didn't care a bit about freeing the slaves. He cared about keeping the south in the union so the north could collect tariff money from the south.
You have to do one thing at a time
First he had to preserve the Union and then he had to go after the Slave Rapers
He ended up doing both
The Slave Rapers fought very hard to preserve their right to own other human beings
The North was willing to work within the bounds of our Constitution. The south feared our Constitution and made one of their own that guaranteed slavery in perpetuity
