Aaron Parmenter wrote, correctly, that Abraham Lincoln waged The War
Between The States to SAVE THE UNION and not to free the slaves!

Abraham Lincoln in a letter to Horace Greeley in 1862 wrote,
"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and
it is not either to save or destroy slavery."
