So I'm writing a paper for one of my classes on Lincoln's views on slavery between 1858 and 1865. My stance is in this time period he was always opposed but was never really prepared to put up a good fight on the subject until after he had actually taken office.

Obviously he wanted to abolish slavery, hence the 13th Amendment but earlier in his career although he had opposed slavery he wasnt exactly gung-ho at abolishing it. Just wondering if anyone has any other views on the subject?
