You are the one embarrassing yourself. The war was about slavery. Just because Lincoln didn't actively seek to end slavery in 1861, that doesn't mean the war wasn't about slavery. The south seceded to protect slavery. Lincoln wanted to reunite the union. That was the cause of the war, ergo, the war was about slavery.
