Trac 06/27/2005 05:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "I cannot swallow whole the view of Lincoln as the Great Emancipator," Obama said. "As a law professor and civil rights lawyer and as an African-American, I am fully aware of his limited views on race. Anyone who actually reads the Emancipation Proclamation knows it was more a military document than a clarion call for justice."
That was Lincoln´s point. His objective was to get the emancipation through, not write a pretty peom on racial harmony you nitwit. We´re talking about civil war here. The Northern states were not about to fight the South over slavery. Lincoln set the country on fire, as it was, because of this emancipation yet somehow that´s not good enough for the mighty African from Illinois. |
