Let us see the last paragraph Stealhead why certainly;
"The Emancipation Proclamation may lack the rhetorical elegance of the Gettysburg Address or the Second Inaugural, but Guelzo makes it clear that the Proclamation is the most epochal of Lincoln’s public pronouncements. Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation is the definitive treatment of emancipation. Allen Guelzo deserves our immense gratitude for returning this critical document to its place of honor in the history of the American Republic."
You where using an article to prove the statements of Takeda Shingen wrong yet fail to realize that the author of the article holds the same view that Takeda does.
First African American congressman Hiram Rhodes elected into office in 1870 party Republican.

Anyway keep doing your revisionist thing.Also look up the term "Dixiecrats" |
Yeah, I read it.
And yes there are Blacks in the Republican Party. But they were and are only a handful of the general Black population.
The Democrates started the "Freemans Bureau" which later morphed into the Federal Welfare Department. In an attempt to buy votes no doubt.

So? Does that make him a bad guy?
The guy you quoted is an old white Republican (Allen Guelzo) who jumped on the Lincoln bandwagon not all that long ago and now can't pump out enough books about Lincoln. I guess your guy is better than mine!
Well here is some very respected people who don't think his info is that correct.

And "Dixiecrats"? Who broke away from the Democratic Party in 1948 has what to do with the Civil War? As I said there are Blacks in the Republican Party, Rice, Powell,ect. But no where near the number that are Democrates.
Anyway, you can have the last word now. I'm done with this.
And no, I'm not a Republican.
