James Madison and other supporters of the Constitution argued that a bill of rights wasn't necessary because - “the government can only exert the powers specified by the Constitution.” But they agreed to consider adding amendments when ratification was in danger in the key state of Massachusetts.
A lever is a machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum. It is one of the six simple machines identified by Renaissance scientists. The word comes from the French lever, "to raise", cf. a levant. A lever amplifies an input force to provide a greater output force, which is said to provide leverage. The ratio of the output force to the input force is the mechanical advantage of the lever.

Answer:
The American Civil War (also known by other names) was a civil war in the United States from 1861 to 1865, fought between northern states loyal to the Union and southern states that had seceded to form the Confederate States of America.[e] The civil war began as a result of the unresolved controversy of the enslavement of black people and its disputed continuance. War broke out in April 1861 when secessionist forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina, just over a month after Abraham Lincoln had been inaugurated as the president of the United States. The loyalists of the Union in the North, which also included some geographically western and southern states, proclaimed support for the Constitution. They faced secessionists of the Confederate States in the South, who advocated for states' rights to uphold slavery.
Answer: The Union winning the Civil War
Explanation:
President Lincoln in that excerpt is saying that if the war was to be lost then the men and women who died in the civil war defending a type of governance that was of, by and for the people and guaranteed freedom for humans will have died in vain.
Whilst there were multiple reasons for the Civil War, the most popular one was that of slavery. The Confederacy did not want to give it up and the Union wanted to abolish it.
President Lincoln as the leader of the Union is therefore stating that if the Union did not win, the freedom that they fought for would be crushed by the Confederacy and perish from the world and therefore would have been in vain.
