the most liberal country in the world, per capita.

but you all still get riled up by media companies and spin doctor think tanks to hate each other for shit that no one has any right to fucking care about.

America is in dire straights because of one thing...

americans.

Hold hands fighting or hold hands starving...your country treats you all like niggers.

OP, here

Yeah, you're right. it was mainly used as leverage to cut off any external support to the confederacy due to their crop yields to European countries, and to greater strengthen the Union itself.

It would still be funny if he knew though.

>A just government exists at the consent of the governed (decl of ind)

>The United States is a voluntary association (volunteered signature to Constitution)

>The South decided democratically to separate.(permission revoked in a just way).

Lincoln ignored all that and instead of arguing against that iron clad logic, he faked an attack on a base he wouldn't leave inside Southern territory. Cassus Belli

I think you mean preserve the union, and yes he wanted to personally free the slaves, but his main goal was the Unity of the United states.

He said "I would save the Union. I would save it the shortest way under the Constitution. The sooner the national authority can be restored; the nearer the Union will be "the Union as it was..."
"If I could save the union without freeing a single slave I would do it.....
and if I could save the union by freeing all slaves I would do it too."
"What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views."

"I have here stated my purpose according to my view of official duty; and I intend no modification of my oft-expressed personal wish that all men every where could be free."
