How did southerners see the confederacy when President Lincoln considered the southern states to be rebels?
President Lincoln discussed the perpetual union theory of the United States. He argued that even though the Constitution doesn't talk about the Union being united through the Constitution, he talks about how the Union happened before the Constitution. In the Articles of Confederation (which was the agreement of government before the Constitution) states that "Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled." This was not mentioned in the Constitution. Furthermore, in Article 1 Section 10 Clause 1 of the Constitution states that "no state shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation" this means that the South could not legally create the Confederacy.
