In the Summer of 1864, radical Republicans did not see the progress they expected from US President Lincoln's efforts to end the war and end slavery. Lincoln was a moderate Republican and to many of the radicals, he had been too soft on the South. This, in 1864, was an unfair charge against Lincoln. He and his generals were doing all that was possible to force the South into a surrender. Lincoln feared that the Republican Party would not nominate him as their candidate for the November 1864 presidential election.
