Lincoln guaranteed Southerners that he would protect their private property, though not their slaves. ... Radical Republicans believed that Lincoln's plan for Reconstruction was not harsh enough because, from their point of view, the South was guilty of starting the war and deserved to be punished as such.
omg thanks bobpursley!!!!
It's "President Lincoln was assassinated before he was able to persuade Congress."
