Tell me about it, I’m from the cradle of the confederacy, born, raised and picked cotton within ten miles of the site of the first secession meeting. Confederate veterans on both sides of my family tree. I laugh at the clowns who think Lincoln’s whole focus was to do away with slavery.
Don't blame you. Lincoln made it quite clear that his overriding priority was to preserve the union, not end slavery. That did not necessarily mean that he favored slavery.
