A reminder:

What percentage of whites in the Confederacy owned niggers? Once you answer that, answer this, if the secessionist resolutions and Constitutions were specifying “slavery” as a cause, then (((who))) was citing that as a reason?

The majority of white citizens of the Confederacy had plenty of reasons to hate Lincoln, and slavery was nowhere near the top of the list.
