Lincoln rewrote the Constitution of at least one state during the Civil War.
If had had foreseen what would have come as a result of the war then he would have asked his buddy Jefferson Davis for a copy of the CSA Constitution and replaced the inadequate US Constitution with it.
Lincoln obtained big industry support to get elected, somehow failing to recognize that this would lead to a major bit of irreconcilable differences as he wanted to send the blacks back while big industry wanted the blacks to work in its factories as cheap labor. Call it optimism, but based on Lincoln's support of huWhite Supremacy I can't see him, with informed consent, signing onto a scheme that replaced White workers with 4,400,000+ niggers.
He was a war criminal, and HATED by almost everyone. He wiped his ass with the Constitution, it is a meaningless shred of toilet paper to those in charge.
Lincoln was horrid, I agree. The guy was famous for exposing the political hypocrisy of his opponents when he was up-and-coming, but then flagrantly sold out his own principles by taking industrialist support in order to guarantee his election.
I theorize that he could have redeemed himself significantly if he had deported the niggers and stopped Reconstruction, the latter he had pledged to do in his last public speech, and that if he could have seen what his decisions did to both him and the USA then he would have used his tyranny for some good, instead of just for pure evil.
