Lincoln did indeed outstep his boundaries and his powers. He even dragged the war on to get the 13th amendment passed. His boldness and his actions, though illegal, gave us the free union we have today, so that those of us living in this country can all call ourselves americans, under a single flag and as a single nation. History otherwise wouldve taken a very, very different path, possibly and more likely for the worst. The world would be a drastically different place had the union split in two, whether it be for better or for worse, nobody could possibly know for certain.

And that's all i gotta say about that. I'd also like to mention that we have too many threads on the civil war already and the arguments about it should probably be kept there so as to stay on topic and not make the mods frustrated.
