“Following a meeting at the Executive Mansion with Negroes from Louisiana who presented him with a petition, Lincoln privately expressed his support for voting rights for Negroes. He preferred to restrict it, however, to ‘the very intelligent’ and Union army veterans.”

If only they could restrict the vote to the very intelligent and army veterans across the board.

There would be no stopping this nation.

Sadly those horses have left the barn, and only now is it starting to sink in that the America and the Republic given to us by the Founding fathers is lost, and a USSA is just around the corner.
