The three most famous men Lincoln picked the lead his Armies were
1) Robert E Lee....slave owner
2) George McClellan...who said slavery was perfectly legal
3) U.S. Grant.....slave owner

Strange picks for a man who want’s to end slavery!!!!

General Lee freed his slaves and thought the institution odious. He was right.

Grant acquired a slave through his wife. He soon got rid of him.

Any slaves held by McClellan were trivial and he, like Grant, was not fighting to end slavery. Both were defending the Union.

Lee was opposed to slavery and made it clear he was fighting for Virginia not slavery.
