    and revisionist bullshit.

    the reason for the war was the southern states breaking away from the union BECAUSE they were going to abolish slavery.

    when they broke up, the main issue became maintaining the union. the war was fought for keeping the union intact, and asserting authority of the federal govt and assemblies over states. everyone knew that after the war, existing assemblies were going to abolish slavery. it was a due process.

    holy cow.
