Lincoln went to war to preserve the Union not abolish slavery. Secession started it.
And thousands died for that decision. People that would have lived if the country had split.
What will happen when the next secession movement begins? what will happen when half of the states get fed up with the federal government stealing their money and then wasting it?
this country is at a turning point. 2014 and 2016 will decide which way it goes.
Truth time:
Davis ordered the attack on Ft. Sumter, not Lincoln.
Lincoln ordered union troops to trespass on Confederate territory, a clear act of war.
