Beerjeep is somebody who read a bunch of memes about Abe and formulated his thesis on him as the great racist. When in actuality he was much in line with all whites at the time. Not in any way an overt racist but a man who viewed blacks in much the same way a lot of intellectuals did at the time. Reading an actuql book without pictures would do him some good. But beerjeep has his memes with quotes next to pictures of Abe so that is all he needs. What a queer.

Exactly. Chernow’s biography on Grant (which was fantastic) paints a far different picture of Lincoln than what is being claimed here.

No, I’ve taken plenty of history classes and read close to 50 books on the civil war.

Never said he wasn’t. I said he was a racist. The majority of the whites at that time were.

No, he was an outright racist. But that was standard then.

Reading an ACTUAL book might help you in your spelling.

Once again, I’ve read countless books on the civil war. Would you like to discuss the civil war? I’d be more than happy to.
