The SLAVE holders of the 1800’s were all DEMOCRATS and they continue that tradition today ..95 % of blacks still vote Democrat because they wont eat if they dont …They wont get free Obama phones ,rent subsidies ,food stamps …Thats no different than the 1800’s . They sell their votes voluntary now instead of involuntary servitude .WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE ? Lincoln freed the Slaves and they sold themselves right back into it.. He wasted his time ..Instead of demanding JOBS that represent Freedom to choose ..they get hand outs that keeps them chained to government Democrats.
On another front it was a waste of time …the invention of mechanized farm machinery made Slavery a problem instead of a benefit they were no longer needed and were never trained for jobs that would have given them FREEDOM… JOBS JOBS JOBS…
