Wrong. SC moved before Davis was elected president. SC acted as a sovereign nation-state. Lincoln's refusal to meet with SC envoys and his refusal to uphold Buchannan's agreement of a truce on hostilities at Sumter was a clear sign of war.
Charleston was a ready to ignite for months. Lincoln dropped the match.
Nonsense. Lincoln was inaugurated until March, long after the south had organized iteself into the confederacy and several weeks after Davis had been installed as president, so the claim that South Carolina was acting on it's own is ridiculous. The idea that ther was a truce with the Buchanan administration is also false. There was an agreement not to reinforce Sumter so long as the South Carolina militia did not seize federal facilities in Charleston but that had been violated by South Carolina back in January.
Charleston was a ready to ignite for months. Lincoln dropped the match.
The only match that was dropped was the one Jeff Davis dropped on the touchhole of the first cannon in Charleston Harbor.
