RE: If Lincoln had not died

Sorry Nancy, I don't agree regarding Lincoln's plans for reconstruction. Lincoln worked with Stanton quite a bit on how to handle reconstruction. Stanton was writting - at Lincoln's request - a flexable document about this very thing and the cabinet had discussed changes in the document at their last cabinet meeting. Lincoln knew that what worked in one state might not work in another. No one size fits all.

I'm using as my reference the Stanton biography by Thomas & Hyman. I'm reading the part about reconstruciton now, and since my knowldge is a bit thin, what I'm reading is a bit overwhelming. This book has a lot of footnotes, so I'll see who is mentioned the most frequently regarding this. If anyone has access to Gideon Welles diary, that is refereced frequently by the authors. (Welles didn't like Stanton)

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
