for a HANDFUL of Abolitionists & a HANDFUL of slave-owners, slavery was THE central issue of the WBTS.

PERHAPS as much as ONE PERCENT of the citizens North & South felt that way.

for the other 99%, "southern LIBERTY" or "preserving the union" was the MAIN issue.

no matter how much you may WISH slavery was THE ISSUE or ONE of the MAIN ISSUES, the FACTS do NOT support your wishes. to quote RWR, "FACTS are IMPORTANT".

Not to you, since you've been caught fabricating facts time and again. So, are you going to post this alleged PM from me that you claim to have? Or are you going to admit that you lied about that, just as you did about seeing an 1851 Moline tractor?
