Yeah. It’s a total mystery.
It really is, when you have quotes such as
quote:
I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races ... I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality.
Or
quote:
There is a natural disgust in the minds of nearly all white people to the idea of indiscriminate amalgamation of the white and black races ... A separation of the races is the only perfect preventive of amalgamation, but as an immediate separation is impossible, the next best thing is to keep them apart where they are not already together. If white and black people never get together in Kansas, they will never mix blood in Kansas ...

In the language of Mr. Jefferson, uttered many years ago, "It is still in our power to direct the process of emancipation, and deportation, peaceably, and in such slow degrees, as that the evil will wear off insensibly; and in their places be, pari passu [on an equal basis], filled up by free white laborers."

I have no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with the institution of slavery in the states where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.

I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is physical difference between the two which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality, and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position.

Our republican system was meant for a homogeneous people. As long as blacks continue to live with the whites they constitute a threat to the national life. Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man.

"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives, that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

So much mad.
I’m not addressing anything you’re saying because this thread is about his birthday and his overcoming depression, and you can just keep melting by yourself.

well, your username checks out. You have the debate skills and intellect of a fourteen year old
Keep celebrating a racist. The hypocrisy is laughable

Can you link the other XIII times? (Also, you should capitalize your Roman numerals. As someone who has them in my name, I find it rather insulting)

Does it make you mad to know that Abe was racist? That he wanted to send blacks back to Africa? That he always believed blacks were worse than whites?
Don't care. I'll always like Lincoln for making the south bend the knee and beg for mercy.

Abraham Lincoln - The ringleader of the war of northern aggression.

Lincoln and Robert E Lee were no different when it came to racism. That’s a fact jack.
Posted on 2/12/19 at 3:14 pm to Brazos
It’s still Lincoln’s birthday, though. None of the negative stuff anyone has to say about him matters.
Thank God he was President. Thank God he emancipated millions of Americans.

So why is it that the southern states started to secede just after Lincoln was elected and prior to his inauguration?
What was it about Abraham Lincoln that the southern states found so unacceptable?

He fought to keep the union. He was a tyrant. And frick John Wilks Booth..... Cause that bastard Abe had a plan.

Idk you tell me. Maybe you can tell me why the north didn’t free their own slaves while you’re at it
That doesn’t mean the north fought to end slavery. They didn’t at all, they fought to preserve the union.
Had the north fought to end slavery, the north would have freed their own slaves at the onset of the war.
The emancipation proclamation would have affected and freed the slaves in the north had he thought slavery was wrong.

That they left the Union.
The fact the south owned slaves had absolutely zero to do with why they waged war on the south.
