Regarding Lincoln's crediting the founders with abolishing slavery.

I can only say that there is not a man living who wishes more sincerely than I do to see a plan adopted for the abolition of slavery.

The DoI and the Bill of Rights virtually assured that slavery would ultimately be abolished. It was either that or toss the whole Constitution in the trash bin and admit that the DoI wasn’t really serious.
