"To say that Lincoln had the power to end slavery with the stroke of a pen"

I never said that.

A lie in the first line is usually an indicator of a slavery apologist. Later.

In post #171, I said that "the Proclamation freed no one." You responded in post #174 by saying that "someone should have told Douglass that the Emancipation Proclamation did nothing to free the slaves." You were, in effect, saying that the Proclamation freed the slaves.

If anyone here is lying, it isn't me.
