Quote by Abraham Lincoln - Civil War about Slavery - I doubt it!

"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either
to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any
slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would
do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I
would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do
because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear
because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less
whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more
whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause." The Collected Works
of Abraham Lincoln edited by Roy P. Basler, Volume V, "Letter to Horace
Greeley" (August 22, 1862), p. 388.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.

Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
