it would have been better for all parties concerned, North and South, had Booth’s pistol misfired.It would have been even better if Lincoln had not plunged this nation into civil war, even better that he had not been elected president. But he did plunge the country into civil war, ignoring his campaign pledge. He does not deserve our respect, only our pity.

Amazing how he managed to do that all on his own without any help from Jefferson Davis and his gang. </sarcasm>

Out of curiosity, what campaign pledge do you think Lincoln broke?
