it is the party that freed the slaves from democrats.So he's somehow not a Democrat because he is from the South?
Douglas won only one state. He wasnt a serious contender in that race. He probably should have listened to Joseph Smith Jr.
Oh, and Lincoln/Douglas debates had nothing to do with the Presidential election. They were held several years before when they were both trying to win the Senate seat in IL. In fact, it's the Seat Dick Durbin currently holds.
You can call your party anything you want moron. It's only to simpleton's like yourself that seems to think that's important. It's because you're a simpleminded piece of shit that finds meaning in the various party names. If I lived in that time, I'd have voted for Lincoln, because what I saw of Southern conservatives would have been repulsive. In fact, when I first became of voting age, I was faced with a serious choice. There was a vibrant liberal wing, in the Northeast at the time, and I looked at the Dixiecrats like Wallace and Bull Connors and was repulsed by their hate and bigotry.
I'm currently a registered Democrat because I believe in their values, attitudes, and beliefs much more than I believe in the Republican values, attitudes, and beliefs. I look at today's, here and now, Republicans as a cognitive dissonant party that's owned by the interests of the most wealthy, in bed with the most theocratic, and resulting in the moronic set, like Bush and Romney, who'll fuck us all with their ignorant policy.
You, OTH, will stick your tongue so far up their ass to know what they had for dinner last week. None of your arguments make any sense. You just repeat what they tell you to. It's right wingers like yourself that disgusts me with the GOP. You stand against science, knowledge, and honesty. You're hershey squirts to me.
The slaves freed the slaves, you piece of shit. The 180,000 ex slaves changed the course of the war. The fact remains that Southern conservatives still spit on Lincoln.
