Why are some of President Lincoln’s ideas considered contradictory?

History

Liula [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Some of President Lincoln's ideas have been considered contradictory because, during his presidency, he made many decisions that were different from what he had previously expressed on the subject.

Thus, for example, although during his discussions with Senator Douglas, Lincoln defended a gradual limitation to slavery in the country, he flatly refused to be abolitionist; but in 1863, through his Emancipation Proclamation, he abolished slavery in the territory of the United States.

To understand these contradictions, we must take into account the greatness of President Lincoln as president and as a human being. Without a doubt, it was a president who tried to maintain the unity of America as a nation, and made decisions that he did not ideologically share but understood necessary to maintain that union.
