Abraham Lincoln's primary desire was to restore the union. His second inaugural speech spoke in terms of a joined union, with no side holding superiority over the other. He knew after such a bitter war, the only way for the union to survive would be to stress unity, forgiveness, and get on to the business of making the whole.
