Abraham Lincoln
Abraham Lincoln was elected the 16th president of the U.S because he debated about slavery with Douglas. He unshakably was against 3 things but especially these specific ideas.
1. Slavery
2. States having more power than the nation
3. War
Lincoln thought that the war was the only option to protect the union. He badly wanted the war to maintain an intact country. He didn't want the south to secede from the union.
