lincoln, the TYRANT, hated and feared "persons of colour".
"reconstruction" under a healthy lincoln might well have been an ETHNIC CLEANSING.
after all he had said (reference the Amerindians) that the "savages must be driven from our dominions OR exterminated".
lincoln wanted the USA to be a "white man's country".

Where? In one of those secret letters you claim to have seen during your imaginary "graduate school days"?
There was an Indian uprising here in the upper midwest. Many many indians were to be hanged. Lincoln stepped in, and in an extremely unpopular move, pardoned all but a few leaders.
Whatever the prejudices about Blacks that Lincoln shared with his fellow countrymen in 1860, by the standards of his day, he wasn't especially bigoted or negrophobic. He demonstrated an openness to change and experience during his presidency.
Consider his late speech supporting the extension of the right to vote to "qualified" Blacks. That might not seem like much today, but considering the times and Lincoln's earlier views it was quite a step.
Of course Lincoln died before he could implement reconstruction so we can't say what he would have done, but given your record of making things up and lying, it's hard to give much credence to your opinions.
