The three items that correctly describe Abraham Lincoln's plan for restoring the Union after the Civil War are:
B "With malice towards none, with charity for all...."
D States would be readmitted after 10% of 1860 voters swore allegiance to the United States.
E Ratification of the 13th Amendment was required for re-admittance to the Union.
Explanation:
- B reflects Lincoln's approach to reconciliation and healing.
- D refers to Lincoln's Ten Percent Plan, which proposed that a southern state could be readmitted to the Union once 10% of its voters from the 1860 election pledged allegiance to the Union.
- E refers to the requirement for the Southern states to ratify the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery, as part of the re-admittance process.
A is incorrect because Lincoln's plan was not known as "Radical Reconstruction"; that term is associated with later, more stringent policies. C is incorrect as Lincoln's initial approach did not involve military occupation of the Southern states, which was more characteristic of the latter Reconstruction efforts.
