Slavery and bad leaders

Slavery is and has always been one of the worst sins of mankind. No sane person could/should think otherwise but several US Presidents and maybe all of them have had policies and deeds during their administration that when focused upon demonstrates that they were not the sterling people that we should worship or put up on a pedestal. They were human and like all leaders were manipulated by wealthy people who had their own agendas. This theme is nothing new it is as relevant today as it was 5,000 years ago. Money talks and absolute power corrupts it is the way of mankind and that evil at times institution of politics and the government that is it birth child. Just felt like harping on Lincoln this morning, could have been FDR,JFK, hell even Reagan it is just something people should know that no leader has ever been perfect except for Solomon and I'm sure he had plenty of bad/nasty decisions in his closet too. There is much documentation of the dictator like policies of Lincoln during the civil war it just is what it was at that time. So this is just one of many links that "in hind sight" shows how wrong a person can govern at times. 2 cents worth     https://civilwartalk.com/threads/lincoln-worst-president-in-us-history.7560/
