He didn't want to do that. Fact is his emancipation proclamation ONLY freed the Slaves in the Confederate States of America and not the United States. Once again interfering in other country's business

"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." Abe Lincoln

"I am not now, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social or political equality of the white and black races. I am not now nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor of intermarriages with white people. There is a physical difference between the white and the black races which will forever forbid the two races living together on social or political equality. There must be a position of superior and inferior, and I am in favor of assigning the superior position to the white man." Abe Lincoln

Mindmeld, > Abraham Lincoln. The guy who ended slavery once and for all in the US.

So why do you support the George McClellans of the 21st century?
