Answer:
Lincoln’s Plan
Abraham Lincoln had thought about the process of restoring the Union
from the earliest days of the war. His guiding principles were to
accomplish the task as rapidly as possible and ignore calls for
punishing the South.
Johnson’s Plan
The looming showdown between Lincoln and the Congress over
competing reconstruction plans never occurred. The president was
assassinated on April 14, 1865. His successor, Andrew Johnson of
Tennessee, lacked his predecessor’s skills in handling people; those
skills would be badly missed.
Johnson’s plan envisioned the following:
• Pardons would be granted to those taking a loyalty oath
• No pardons would be available to high Confederate officials
and persons owning property valued in excess of $20,000
• A state needed to abolish slavery before being readmitted
• A state was required to repeal its secession ordinance before
being readmitted.
The Radical Republicans’ Own Plan
The postwar Radical Republicans were motivated by three main
factors:
1. Revenge — a desire among some to punish the South for
causing the war
2. Concern for the freedmen — some believed that the federal
government had a role to play in the transition of freedmen
from slavery to freedom
3. Political concerns — the Radicals wanted to keep the
Republican Party in power in both the North and the South.
On the political front, the Republicans wanted to maintain their
wartime agenda, which included support for:
• Protective tariffs
• Pro-business national banking system
• Liberal land policies for settlers
• Federal aid for railroad development
