What was the response of President Lincoln to Northern calls for slave emancipation in August of 1862?
In the Summer of 1862, President Lincoln was under political attacks by War Democrats, Radical Republicans and abolitionists. In the meantime he had to manage the war. More pressure was added by the editor of the New York Republican newspaper editor Horace Greeley. In a striking editorial, Greeley writes an editorial demanding slave emancipation. In response, Lincoln answers Greeley's editorial by saying that his primary objective is to save the Union. Whatever he does or does not do about slavery must serve the goal of preserving the Union.
