And slaveholders dominated the secession movement and the Confederacy. They dragged the South into a devastating and losing war in the hope of continuing to own people as their property. So who is the worse: Mr. Lincoln, the railroad lawyer become President, or slaveholders who resorted to the lash, chains, secession, and war to deny freedom to other human beings?

“And slaveholders dominated the secession movement and the Confederacy.”
