I’ve read several Lincoln biographies. His main priority was preserving the union. At one time he thought that returning blacks to Africa would be the right thing to do. He was very much troubled by slavery. I believe Lincoln was fundamentally a good and moral man. He tried to do what was best for the country and for both whites and blacks.

In your reading of the biographies, did you ever come across any information indicating Lincoln was a white supremacist?
