He is not obsessed with Lincoln.

[Catalyst]

ummm....let me take you for a walk through history.
lincoln was a free soiler...meaning he approved the abolition of slavery...when he became president, the south seceded...starting with south carolina....the rest followed....

i dont see the problem of anyone admiring lincoln .

[NotReporDemtt]

I he's obsessed with him because he was assassinated

[NatashaB]

I don't think he is...do you know what obsession means...


Lincoln paved the way for freedom but he only declared the slaves free in states he had no control over....not in his area which shows he could care less about them...if he really cared about their freedom he would have given freedom to the ones in the north but he chose not to...New Jersey was the last state to give up it's slaves....

No one thinks that the civil war was started because of slaves...that would be ignorant....

So no, I do not agree....
