In the 1858 debates with Stephen Douglas, he stated that be believed that whites were superior to blacks.He was also against miscegenation and for black people to serve as jurors. "Douglass praised Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation; however, he stated that Lincoln "was preeminently the white man’s President, entirely devoted to the welfare of white men."-Wikipidea. Lincoln had a large part of America that supported him. He could have implemented policies that were aimed at providing racial equality among the judicial structures and other structures. Here are some fucked up racist quotes
"I have no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with the institution of slavery in the states where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so."
"Our republican system was meant for a homogeneous people. As long as blacks continue to live with the whites they constitute a threat to the national life. Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man."
"I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is physical difference between the two which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality, and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position."
And your point is?
Do you guys scream "nailed it" every time you cut and paste this?
Yes I do because I am that self centered
