Would you say that a part of Lincoln being such a masterful politician was he was so universally underestimated in the beginning? You are 100% correctthat AL was not opposed to changing positions of a matter. As an Illinois parie lawyer, he argued both sides of the slavery issue.....and if I remember successfully. In the PBS "Looking for Lincoln" Skip Gates states that AL had defended the rights of a slaveholder successfully and argues another case against the issue. |
