Abe Lincoln is quoted as saying he doesn't really care whether slavery is continued, that saving the Union is what he cares about.

You mean endless, overlapping and intertwined conspiracies?

Not just one?

Oh dear, I'll have to go back on my smart pills.

Honest Abe:

'I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way, the social and political equality of the white and black races. ... I, as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.'

- Abraham Lincoln, in 1858 debate with Stephen Douglas

Editing is alive and well. People also do that with the bible so why not with everything else. Take one sentence a man said and make it his life mission. Ignore all the other things he has said. Gets old really.

Why must you always post things that take forever to sift through?

The Rothschild's are by many multiples, the richest family in the world, they were then and they are now, but they keep a very low profile. A couple of the corporations they own are Rio-Tinto and DeBeers, but there are countless more. They control the Bank of England and the American central bank, the 'Fed', and are enabled to print all they care to print, and then lend it to the government at interest.
Andrew Jackson was the only American president to ever completely pay off the national debt. America thrived when he dismantled the Central banl, and printed the 'greenback' based strictly on the strength of America. There was no gold standard. The Rothschilds fought for years to regain control of the American economy, and they succeeded. The result is that the American people are enslaved to debt for all eternity.

But theree is more to the story.

Stuart Mackenzie: Well, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as the Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.Tony Giardino: So who's in this Pentavirate?Stuart Mackenzie: The Queen, the Vatican, the Gettys, the Rothschilds, and Colonel Sanders before he went tets-up. Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee beady eyes! And that smug look on his face, "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"Charlie Mackenzie: Dad, how can you hate the Colonel?Stuart Mackenzie: Because he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes ya crave it fortnightly, smartarse!Charlie Mackenzie: Coo-coo.So I Married an Axe Murderer - Wikiquote
