They wanted to kill Jewish because it was almost like the whites and blacks except the Germans were more cruel to them. Not today though
Radical Republicans believed blacks were entitled to the same political rights as whites. They believed the Confederates were traitors and that they should be punished for their roles in the American Civil War. Following Lincolnâ??s assassination, they vigorously opposed President Johnsonâ??s lenient approach to the south and engaged in a fierce political battle with him.
A major area of disagreement between Abraham Lincoln and the Radical Republicans was that Lincoln wanted to forgive and reintegrate the South back into the Union as painlessly and smoothly as possible while restricting the rights of freed slaves, whereas the Radical Republicans wanted to punish the South as harshly as possible and grant full citizenship rights to freed slaves. After Lincoln's assassination, the Radical Republicans went on to pass a string of laws that would grant voting rights to freedmen, restrict any whites associated with the Confederacy from holding public office, create the South's first public school system, and provide charitable institutions like hospitals and asylums.
No, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr was not a president, or even a political candidate. He was a leader that helped blacks and whites come together. At the time of his death, the US was still so segregated that it would not have accepted an African-American president. He was a pastor and civil rights leader. Other civil rights leaders that ran for office were: Jesse Jackson, Andrew Young and Al Sharpton.
