Can anyone possibly defend slavery?
Lincoln tried to make slavery protected by the Constitution.
Northern-Permanent-Slavery-Amendment
Above is the Northern Permanent Slavery Amendment that would have guaranteed
permanent slavery in the United States and which was passed by the U.S. Congress
on the same day the highest import tax in U. S. history was enacted, the Morrill Tariff
Act of 1861.
What part of "preserve the union at all costs" are you failing to grasp?
Can anyone possibly defend slavery?
I have to agree, rightwinger.Let me guess..
Hitler and Lincoln were both socialists and comparable in their evil.
No
However Lincoln was a dictator.
For a dictator, he sure had a hard time getting the 13th amendment passed
Such as?If this film nailed it as you said they would have used the exact words that would have been used at the time. Because words from the 19th century have a different meaning than they do today.
Could it be because Abraham Lincoln died 8 months (April 14, 1865) before the 13th Amendment passed? (Dec. 6, 1865)No

Sorry, del. I typed in the first date from a source that said it was passed Dec. 6. Other sources I checked after clicking said it was January 13. I was wrong. I apologize to rightwinger and to you for your trouble.Could it be because Abraham Lincoln died 8 months (April 14, 1865) before the 13th Amendment passed?

we'll add how an amendment is passed to the list of things you don't know.
Amending the Constitution: The Meaning of Article V
Does anyone have any thoughts on the outcome had the pro-slavery amendment been passed? How would that have affected the U.S. in the passage of time?
Again I hate it when people use the image from uncle toms cabin to depict how it was.Ever wondered about those conditions of factory workers up north?Does anyone have any thoughts on the outcome had the pro-slavery amendment been passed? How would that have affected the U.S. in the passage of time?
Slavery would have ended soon anyway; it is an unworkable economic system for many reasons, not the least of which are lack of internal markets and the insupportable long-term balance of trade.
The mere inhumanity of it may have counted as well.

Lincoln - one of my favs
People like him and Nixon did more for civil rights than ant Democrap ever did
As far as Nixon? Eh...
I wonder if they told the truth or made the south out to be evil?Lincoln, a revealing drama that focuses on the 16th Presidents tumultuous final months in office. In a nation divided by war and the strong winds of change, Lincoln pursues a course of action designed to end the war, unite the country and abolish slavery. With the moral courage and fierce determination to succeed, his choices during this critical moment will change the fate of generations to come.
Never mind I know
no, they were truthful
the south came across as whiny and stupid, but not evil
As far as Nixon? Eh...
Did shitloads for Equal Rights movement.
So yeah - he fucked up. Recorded some shit in a hotel room
Nothing as vile as a blow job in office
At least Nixon resigned with dignity like a man, vs. a redneck impeached disbarred adultering lying under oath POS from Arkansas
