Best Answer

The original plan to assassinate Abraham Lincoln did not simply consist of Lincoln's assassination. Confederate leaders created a plan to ensure a Confederate lead government. The plan was to assassinate the president, vice president and several other key positions who's place was occupied with Union idealists. This plan, however, was did not seem logical, so only Lincolns assassination was carried out.
