(Lincoln) was a misguided politician, like so many others then and now.

Ironic coming from one who has a screen name of the wife of one of the most misguided politicians of all time. Boss Davis was the leader of a criminally stupid rebellion, an incompetent tyrant who presumed to be a champion of constitutional government who in practice could not respect even his confederate constitution.

And you are sadly misinformed and under educated. It was the CSA that reinforced the Constitution, the advice of Thomas Jefferson and many other early patriots.

Lincoln was at the mercy of usual suspects, the railroad and banking magnates and their desire for encompassing power over the existing and future states.

And, I STILL really don’t care who fathered Abraham Lincoln.
