Did the Emancipation proclamation declared that all enslaved people were free?
No. The Emancipation Proclamation, written by Abraham Lincoln, declared all slaves in the CONFEDERATE states free. This did no good because the confederate states were not in Lincoln's control at the time. This document said nothing about the UNION slaves, though. A couple of the states fighting on Lincoln's side still had slaves, and the emancipation proclamation did not set them free.

Did Abraham Lincoln fight for the slaves in the confederate states?
When he issued the Emancipation Proclamation, he freed all the slaves in Union-controlled states and territories at the time (I don't think he freed slaves in the border states, because, for example, Kentucky's massive supply of cannons was far too valuable to lose). He couldn't (and didn't) do anything about confederate slaves. Of course, however, all slaves were freed with the passing of the 13th Amendment, which I believe came after the Civil War ended in 1865.
