You're the one who first used the term "breeding program". I only used it once, in the quote I posted in the previous post, and that was in reply to your post which also made reference to the term.
But enough with what the definition of "is" is, which like slvery is something you Democrats pushed. If you don't agree with the term "breeding program", then you tell me what it is when slave owners steal their slaves' children and sell them as slaves to other slave owners never to be seen by their parents again, and we'll go from there.
They simply took most of the US Constitution and adopted it...
The Democrats could have abolished slavery right then and there, since they were drafting a NEW constitution. They didn't have to copy the bad parts of the US Constitution if they didn't intend to. There was nothing stopping them from dropping the protections for slavery, except that they intentionally wrote their constitution from the ground up to protect slavery.
That differs from the Republicans, who inherited a constitution that already protected slavery that was written before their party was even formed.
As long as you keep lying by claiming it was designed from the ground up to protect slavery.
Sec. 9. (4) No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed.
Sec. 2. (I) The citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several States; and shall have the right of transit and sojourn in any State of this Confederacy, with their slaves and other property; and the right of property in said slaves shall not be thereby impaired.
Sec. 2. (3) The Confederate States may acquire new territory; and Congress shall have power to legislate and provide governments for the inhabitants of all territory belonging to the Confederate States, lying without the limits of the several Sates; and may permit them, at such times, and in such manner as it may by law provide, to form States to be admitted into the Confederacy. In all such territory the institution of negro slavery, as it now exists in the Confederate States, shall be recognized and protected be Congress and by the Territorial government; and the inhabitants of the several Confederate States and Territories shall have the right to take to such Territory any slaves lawfully held by them in any of the States or Territories of the Confederate States.

The Republicans made clear via a Congressional Resolution and Lincoln's numerous statements that they were not fighting to end slavery.
"Viewed from the genuine abolition ground, Mr. Lincoln seemed tardy, cold, dull, and indifferent; but measuring him by the sentiment of his country, a sentiment he was bound as a statesman to consult, he was swift, zealous, radical, and determined."
They made it very clear they were not going to war over slavery. Both sides did.

Lies from Hitler in 1945 saying that he didn't want war in 1939, I mean from JD saying secession wasn't about slavery snipped.
Did they send an ambassador with plenipotentiary power to agree to treaties that would abolish slavery?
Yes, they held their slaves hostage in return for military aid. You would have no problem seeing that if it happened in the Mideast, but you're willing to give a pass to the Democrats running the Confederacy.
Correction, you as a leftist are trying to make it look like conservatives are willing to give a pass to the Confederacy.
Repeat snipped.
There is no reason to doubt they believed that it was not "about" slavery. They said so many times in public and in private. Also you continue to cling to the ridiculous notion that the parties never change. They obviously do and have quite considerably over time.
The Democrats certainly haven't changed. They're still splitting the country over what they think they're entitled to. The only difference is who they're pandering to.
Yeah I did that below. Somehow, I'm guessing you won't like it. LOL!
What I don't like is that you keep spamming FR with the same quotes, but have offered no evidence on why we need to believe any of them.
More Confederate propaganda snipped.
Quotes about how the North wanted to protect American manufacturing from cheap slave labor is somehow oppression, and how JD was willing to offer the slaves freedom in return for offering themselves as fodder in his war to preserve slavery snipped.
He said it. He also empowered his ambassador with plenipotentiary power...
That resulted in nothing.
and he also got the Confederate Congress to agree to allow slaves and their families to be emancipated in exchange for military service.
After the war was already lost. Even then, there was resistance to the idea.
I said it was not like they had a breeding program. You then claimed they did have a breeding program. You were wrong. They did not.
But enough with what the definition of "is" is, which like slvery is something you Democrats pushed. If you don't agree with the term "breeding program", then you tell me what it is when slave owners steal their slaves' children and sell them as slaves to other slave owners never to be seen by their parents again, and we'll go from there.
That's called chattel slavery. It was ever thus. One would think you Leftists would know this given how many millions your fellow Leftists have enslaved.

There you go lying again. They modeled their constitution on the US Constitution. Oh by the way, Republicans could have abolished slavery in the US immediately. They didn't. Don't even try to lie and claim that it was Democrat party opposition in the North which prevented it either. Republicans were not abolitionists and had no intention of abolishing slavery - indeed they were quite willing to protect slavery effectively forever by express constitutional amendment.
That differs from the Republicans, who inherited a constitution that already protected slavery that was written before their party was even formed.
And who did NOTHING to change it to abolish slavery in 1861. In fact, the change they proposed would have protected slavery effectively forever by express constitutional amendment. Only years later did they change their minds.
repeats snipped
As long as you keep lying by claiming it was designed from the ground up to protect slavery I will keep repeating that it was not and that it did not differ from the US Constitution wrt slavery.

Repeats snipped
The Republicans made clear from numerous statements, from a congressional resolution and from the Corwin Amendment that they were not fighting to end slavery.

Pathetic Godwin's law attempt snipped,/p>

What were Northerners holding their slaves hostage in return for?
Correction, you as a leftist are trying to make it look like conservatives are willing to give a pass to the Confederacy.

Of course they have. They used to favor decentralized power and the rights of the states. They used to favor a non interventionist foreign policy. They used to favor limited government. They used to favor a balanced budget. They used to be supported mostly by Southerners. Now they are the opposite of all of those things are are mostly supported by Yankees and Left Coasters. Hell, JFK would be a Republican today. He certainly couldn't be in the modern Democrat party.
What I don't like is that you keep spamming FR with the same quotes, but have offered no evidence on why we need to believe any of them.,/p>
I would say exactly the same of you.
More PC Revisionist propaganda snipped. Quotes about how the North wanted to protect American manufacturing from cheap slave labor is somehow oppression, and how JD was willing to offer the slaves freedom in return for offering themselves as fodder in his war to preserve slavery snipped.,/'p>
Funny, every time Yankees talked about something being for the good of America what they meant was for the good of themselves and their pockets at the expense of Southerners and their economic interests. Whether it was the navigation acts or corporate subsidies or high tariffs or government subsidies for infrastructure projects, it always overwhelmingly benefitted Northerners and came overwhelmingly at the expense of Southerners.
That resulted in nothing.,/p>
They offered it which shows that obviously it was not "about" slavery. They were perfectly willing to sacrifice slavery in order to achieve independence. In other words, it destroys your propaganda.
After the war was already lost. Even then, there was resistance to the idea.
He'd been urging it for a long time and the Confederate Congress agreed to it.
