Chris Christie's Presidential strategy - get people who don't normally vote Republican to vote Republican

[We Keep Receipts 9,238]

You mean the same people who had slaves? Like our lovely Thomas Jefferson, Mr. Democratic Republican who kept a nice little slave on the side to father his children while he still had kids with his wife.

Okay. Lincoln so called fought for slaves although he had slaves? The Emancipation Proclamation was a strategy to force rebellious Southern states to join the North it had nothing to do with freeing slaves . Southern states that were not rebellious got to keep their slaves. This move was done to attempt to economically weaken the Southern States. Most of the freedoms of slaves took place because they needed these fighters in the war, not because they thought of them as equal human beings.

To be honest, I don't trust either side.

2016 my vote is going to the Green Chili Pepper Party of the Liberal, Conservative, South Northern Party. I like this group.

I don't either, but between the two, I can't vote for a party that constantly attacks me because of my skin color AND my religion.

Nice, quick, Informative read Marvin. Thanks.

I sped read it ..so maybe I missed it...but I gathered = Lincoln's motivation to back emancipation was to appeal to Abolitionists & to hurt the military strength of the South.

Quite a bit different than what I was ever taught in History class...even in college, if I remember right ...not sure though...coz my mornings were always a bit hazy those days.

I don't think there is a 100% account of anything going back that far. They take the bits and pieces that look important and disseminate it to the masses.

The Emancipation Proclamation will tell you his mind frame.

The Emancipation Proclamation will tell you his mind frame.

But did he do it because it was right or for political reason?
