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.

XYZ Affair

Explanation:

XYZ affair was a conflict that arose between France and the United States because the French people were not happy with the fact that the U.S reached an agreement (Jay Treaty) with Britain. This event happened from 1798 to 1800. To restore peace between the nations, President John Adams sent three representatives to France.

To their dismay, they were told by French middlemen, namely, Nicholas Hubbard, Jean Hottinguer (X), Pierre Bellamy (Y), and Lucien Hauteval (Z)  that before they could see the Foreign affairs minister, they had to pay a loan and bribe. John Adams made the statement above when presenting the matter to congress. He termed those middlemen XYZ.
