Precisely. Slavery was patently Unconstitutional and would have been deemed so over time.
Instead, we have one man, Lincoln, send 600,000 men to their deaths because of this. In the process, he did away with habeas corpus, jailed those who disagreed with him, and shut down newspapers. And we are sold the line of crap that he is some sort of here? BS. Possibly the worst President ever.

He got his.
