Fact is he had no constitutional power to do so, Lincoln was one of the worst president's we ever had, The only thing he had done was keep US from splitting which I guess was a good thing. He also killed 700,000 or more Americans also he did things unconstitutional and today he would of been impeached but yet people think he was great but read your history and I mean read it and then come back and tell me Lincoln should be honored. The South or slae states gave up slavery and it was abolished it wasnt the Civil War that ended slavery, what the Civil War did was end the right for states to govern by themselves and that is it.

Lincoln was a tyrant and wanted absolute power.
