I guess you could say he was an efficient tyrant. Also there is much speculation that he won by fraud in the election. Whats sad is for all the shit people give the Confederacy about racism, they actually had a plan to integrate black people into society as equals, though over a longer period of time. Lincoln abolished slavery to try and destroy the relations between black and white in the south and did it in a way that forced black people into poverty and struggle. Illinois for example was a slave free state yet had anti black laws. Free blacks were routinely denied entry to northern states. The Confederate government had intentions of helping black people feel as though once they were freed they weren't just aftermath of slavery, but contributing members to society, Southern society, and wanted them to have equal rights. The north used abolition as a way to spin the narrative of the war to help cover up the fact they attacked the South unprovoked and unwarranted. The Souths cessation from the union was almost identical to the founding fathers leaving Britain because of over taxation. This is why they want to take down all these Confederate statues. They dont want us knowing who and what these people really stood for.
