thoseboringpolitics asked: > Also implying Lincoln cared about slavery at all. His goal was preserving the Union, not ending slavery. Look up that quote where he says "If I could save the Union..." He just didn't care. And don't forget: in his crusade to save the Union, he suspended habeas corpus rights and arrested people who spoke out against the war. Lincoln was a tyrant. He may be the man that ended slavery, but it was for government, not for "humans rights".
That proves the point that Libertarians shouldn’t like Lincoln.
