I dont really hate lincoln, but he is not as great as many beleive.

He failed to stop america's only civil war. Sure he won the war, but in the end it was almost impossible for the south to win anyways. Sure he ended slavery, but it was only a way to cripple the south. He did it in the middle of the war, and it only applied to slaves in the states that rebelled. The true ending of slavery came from congress. So, with all that being said, I dont see what he did that was good.
