38. The 'radicals' believed in liberty and equality
Lincoln was never very big on that part of abolition. Those 'radicals' had this odd concept of one person one vote. It was not until the second reconstruction and the re-introduction of federal troops and the voting rights act and civil rights act of the 1960's that our system of legalized aparthied and disenfranchisement was abolished.
