Before the war Lincoln just wanted to stop the spread of slaves, believing states that already had slave should be able to keep their slaves.(that's totaly not cool for some one that wanted to put an end to slavery) During the war, Lincoln at first didn't want his generals to free slaves in the south and only later did so to weaken the Confederacy. Don't be confused and think the Emancipation Proclamation freed all slaves, it only freed slaves in the Confederacy to weaken their defenses. Lincoln said it himself the would continue with slavery, free all the slaves or just free some as long as it preserved the Union.

Abraham Lincoln is generally regarded as a good leader due to his ability to navigate the difficulties of the Civil War, his commitment to ending slavery, and his strong communication skills. His leadership during a tumultuous period in U.S. history is often cited as an example of effective leadership.

Andrew Jackson.
he was a president, so that makes him exceptional.
many slaves had been trying to run away even though they get beat. the slaves start not to care if they get beat. then the owners started losing control of the slaves. then Abraham Lincoln said there is no more slavery
After his first true love died. His friends put Lincoln on a suicide watch. Lincoln said the only reason he did not kill himself is because he had not made a positive change in the world. Lincoln wanted to be remembered.
I don't care! I don't even like history!
He wasn't. California is full of intelligent liberals who don't much care for Republican trash like Lincoln.
against slavery and the south was for slavery!! <3
President elect Abraham Lincoln took great care in preparing his speech for his March 1861 inaugural address. He studied the writings of three great American leaders, President Andrew Jackson, and Congressmen Henry Clay and Daniel Webster. Their works helped Lincoln immensely.
