NOPE, lincoln was STUPID, so stupid as to try and perserve the union at the cost of war, which was to cost the lives of >1,000,000 citizens, many of them INNOCENTS. had he been smart, he would have traded with our new small, mostly agricultural republic, as we would have needed US-made goods for decades, if not permanently.

lincoln was JUST a cheap politician, nothing more, nothing less. and a DAMNFOOL as well.
