And let me add, when Lincoln was running for President, he was mocked for having racial ambiguity. His opponents were running ads depicting him as a monkey in some cases. When you research Lincoln and his whole log cabin story, you find that some things are actually murky.
yes, I agree. a lot of things about about Lincoln, are murky. his legacy is wrapped up in myths, he was never against slavery he told the southern generals at one point in the war, if you surrender you can keep your slaves for forty years.
he doesn't sound like the great freedom fighter his myth makes him out to be. he was indeed a butcher.
