Yes, Slavery has been with us through most of human history but it absurd for you to say, on the one hand, that the War was not about slavery, and then defend slavery.
You sound like the Holocaust deniers who say it never happened and then say that it should happen again.
And yet you sit there and deny known facts about Lincoln to protect your version of history.
BTW, it was the so-called free states that forced the compromise that slaves would count only 3/5 of a person because they didn’t want southern states to have more representation.
