Ollie the same went for the average northern soldier. Most could have cared 
less about anyone else's slave. They were drafted and forced to fight states in 
rebellion, not to free slaves. A large portion were even Irish immigrants, 
handed a rifle straight off the boat. Freeing slaves was a bi-product of the 
war that came in it's second year as a political move. It wasn't even 
enforceable. Lincoln only freed the slaves in states in rebellion, not the 
border states that remained loyal. Read a history book or two. Slavery was 
never outlawed until the thirteenth amendment was passed after the war ended.
BTW, share cropping never existed until *after* the war. It was the plantation 
owners that *share cropped* because they had no slaves and no money. Former 
slaves, without a professional trade, agreed to farm the former plantation 
owner's land for a share of the crop and their homes as payment for their 
labor.If you don't want to read a history book on the subject at least go see 
"Hillary's America". Dinesh D'Souza goes in depth about the history of the 
Democratic party,slavery, Jim Crow, the Ku KLux Klan, post war reconstruction, 
lynchings,civil rights, women's suffrage, voting rights act, the New Deal, the 
Great Society and more.He even gives you how each party stood and voted on each 
matter and piece of legislation. It's all a matter of facts and congressional 
records and can be looked up in any history book dealing with those subjects.
