Not everyone agrees on an answer to this question. Some think that he was the great liberator and that he freed the slaves because he knew it was wrong. However some believe that he only freed the slaves as a military stategy and that he only freed the slaves (emancipation proclamation) in order to weaken the confederacy. This way the North could win the war and preserve the union.
