Before his election in 1860 as the first Republican president, Lincoln had been a lawyer, an Illinois state legislator, a member of the United States House of Representatives, and twice an unsuccessful candidate for election to the Senate.
As the first major Union victory in the East, Antietam allowed Lincoln to announce the Emancipation Proclamation. It also dissuaded foreign powers, particularly England and France from recognizing the Confederacy diplomatically.
Lincoln's first goal was to preserve the Union. However, he did want to free the slaves but did not want to upset the South more then they already were. The Union victory at Antietam gave Lincoln the confidence to pass the Emancipation Proclamation. It created great excitement, but its many loopholes failed to free any slaves.
