are you as dim as your posts indicate? all you are doing is mouthing the same old tired,foolish, ignorant, arrogant anti-southron drivel of the nothern revisionists of liberal academia. if things were as simple as you suggest, there would have been no war. the damnedyankees cared NOTHING about the slaves- NOTHING! lincoln himself said that indians & blacks were NOT HUMAN. his opinion was shared by at least 99% of northern whites.

once again, things are simple ONLY to the SIMPLE.

as i have said before, you really should read something besides propaganda.

The ultimate revisionism is to say that slavery had nothing to do with secession when South Carolina's Declaration of Secession says slavery was the driving force.

...if things were as simple as you suggest, there would have been no war. the damnedyankees cared NOTHING about the slaves- NOTHING!

Lincoln and the Radical Republicans cared about slavery, the rest wanted to preserve the union.

lincoln himself said that indians & blacks were NOT HUMAN. his opinion was shared by at least 99% of northern whites.

But he did issue the EP. Truths are stubborn things aren't they?

once again, things are simple ONLY to the SIMPLE.

The South seceded for slavery, the North fought to preserve the union. I've never said any different.

as i have said before, you really should read something besides propaganda.

I have. I've read South Carolina's Declaration of Secession. The South's own words and they say slavery was the reason.

And 100% of the southern ones?

I know it's pointless but I don't suppose you can provide a source for that Lincoln quote?
