The Lincoln No One Knows

[Gene C]

Is Garrison trying to lead the reader down a path of questionable, alternative interpretation, founded on speculation, which to Garrison seems perfectly logical, in a twisted sort of way?
Is he taking Lincoln's words and actions out of the historical context in which they occurred?
Does he believe Lincoln's actions are based upon his own self interest and that Lincoln believes 'the end justifies the means' ?
Is Garrison looking at society and specifically Lincoln, the events and viewpoints of 1850's - 1860's, from hindsight and a liberal social and political viewpoint of the 1990's?
Is Garrison so personally insecure that he builds himself up by tearing down one who is held in high esteem?
Is Garrison trying to draw attention to himself by being critical of Lincoln?

Perhaps

I only used "perhaps" once.
