“Does that sound like he had been sent to a fate worth than death to you? That he was worse off than he had been as a slave?”

No. Sounds like the man prospered thanks to Marse Robert and others, against all odds. He should be applauded. To reiterate, the survival rate had improved a great deal between the time Abe started agitating for it, with his hero and idol Clay, who had been pushing it for years and years earlier and this great turn of fortune happened for the man THANKS TO THE LEE FAMILY.

Thanks for proving my point. You really should try reading posts all the way through. Oh and try getting help with comprehension.

But...but...but...you said that Africa was uninhabitable. That getting sent there was a death sentence and Lincoln was a monster for even suggesting it.

It improved a great deal in a year???? Lincoln's eulogy was in 1852, the Burke's emigrated to Liberia in 1853. Did it continue to improve for 6 years until Mrs. Burke was writing about how much she loved Africa, then take a nose-dive in 1861 when Lincoln was inaugurated?
