Stephen A. Douglas believed that to keep the presidency in the hands of the Democratic Party, he needed to execute a "southern" strategy. He had to convince southern Democrats that they needed Democratic support in the northern states that gave President Buchanan the White House in 1856. This meant the Democrats had to carry Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois and Indians plus the southern states. Douglas was unable to convince them and southern Democrats focused on sectionalism. This cost them the presidency, and gave the edge to the Republican, Abraham Lincoln. If Douglas had succeeded, there may have not been a Civil War.
