He was the only person I'm aware of advocating mass deportation, not once but at least twice.

Try Lincoln, who worked until his death to accomplish just that. Even in April 1865 he converesed with General Butler about deporting the black Union soldiers to Panama to dig a canal as a REWARD for their service.

So you say. Jefferson Davis, on the other hand, was willing to draft slaves into service in the confederate army and then see them returned to bondage once their services were no longer needed. Which is worse?
