It was about Democrat protection and insistence of slavery. Same now as it ever was.

Hypothetically, if this country were to once again fall into civil war let’s say between normal states and federal government/democrat states, what would would you argue is the cause?

Just to inform you, the other Liberal Lawyer from Illinois who became President told them "If you like your slavery, you can keep your slavery!"

The Ghost amendment that Haunts Lincoln's legacy.

The Republican controlled Congress voted by 2/3rds majority to pass this permanent slavery amendment in both the House and Senate. Lincoln called for its ratification in his first inaugural address.

So no, the fight wasn't about slavery. The Republicans gave that up in March of 1861.
