I know about the Crittenden Compromise.

Isn't it weird what we're not told, and have to find out ourselves by winding up in an discussion with somebody that knows more than you do? It's happened to me a lot.

Engh. It's a matter of opinion and I'm frankly too ignorant about Lincoln to really be able to talk on it much.
Woodrow Wilson caused the bankruptcy of the United States in 1929, or was it 33? Maybe 33 was the cleanup.
If you read the linked article, Lincoln would have kept slavery if the South had stopped fighting.

#1, all the way. Without the centralization created under Lincoln, the Federal Reserve likely would never have been created. Along with every three letter agency. We are just now starting to unwind that centralization more than a hundred and fifty years later.

Wilson was important, as the rigging of the election by Roosevelt shows, but the foundation matters more than the capstone.

"At the Hampton Roads Conference late in the war Confederate Vice-President Alexander Stephens, who cared about the African American people in Southern society, asked Lincoln what was to become of them when freed without property or education? Lincoln dismissed his concerns slightingly with a phrase from a minstrel show song: “Root, hog, or die.”"
