Did you know Lincoln wrote about a dream of his death weeks before it happened? He dreamed he woke up in the middle of the night and found a crowd clad in black weeping downstairs. He asked “What’s happening?” They said “Haven’t you heard? The President’s been shot.” Hearing this Lincoln walked down the hall to the very wing his body would placed in after his actual death and saw a casket in the exact same place he would be put with his own corpse inside of it.

He was a good man with good intentions, but the end of the day his actions have only made things worse. A lot of our problems these days stem from the severe cultural differences between the South and the rest of the United States. Besides if he truly fought for freedom, he would have left the Confederacy alone and recognize that it is for the best. I wonder what he would think if he was alive today. Perhaps he would recognize the damage that his actions have caused. I should note that I do not want another Civil War or secession of Southern states again. I want a unified United States. But what I want and what needs to happen are two different things. Lincoln should have recognized that what he wanted and what needed to happen were two different things.

I've been to Gettysburg, and what really struck me was just how small the whole battlefield seemed. Part of that was just my inherent perspective as someone who has lived her entire life on the West Coast, where hills and mountains are on a completely different scale than they are out east; Big Round Top would be considered a pretty small hill out here, and Little Round Top wouldn't even warrant a name as a geological feature. Trying to wrap my mind around them being important strategic points that thousands of men fought and died for was...challenging. Or standing at Devil's Den and seeing just how small of a place it was, and then remembering that 1,800 casualties were suffered between the two sides there; it would be a challenge just to fit 1,800 people there at once. The place is so small and saw so much carnage. It was really sobering.

The Civil War was basically the trailer for what modern warfare would be.

Its ironic even considering many of the European Powers that saw the Civil War sent attaches to see the strategy and style of fighting the Confederates and Union practiced and all they saw and thought was they were barbaric or unimpressed with the quality they saw. How ironic merely 40 years later, they too would be the ones to do the same fighting on their own continent.

This video account is rather one sided in favor of the north and has left out a lot of details and events. There are numerous reliable books on the subject. John Wilkes Booth was a confederate soldier who was angry that president Lincoln ignored numerous requests from the Southern side to release the Southern P.O.W. soldiers that were held captive in the North and dying of starvation illness and cold conditions at the hands of the Northern soldiers. Lincoln refused several requests by the South to exchange Northern P.OW. soldiers being held captive in the South for Southern P.O.W. soldiers held captive in the North. In anger John Wilkes Booth that was a confederate soldier shot Abraham Lincoln on Good Friday as a possibility that he was trying to send a message that Lincoln thought of himself as God as Lincoln had also stated that he was a Free Thinker and not religious. Far more lives both soldiers and civilians were lost on the Southern side and the North got help from Europe. Also the South was sabotaged in unexpected ways. Then later came the Carpetbaggers from the North to take whatever they could and raise prices in the South after the war.

@@carolynetter8046 Perhaps all true, but then again, you have to emphasize this is an "Oversimplified" version of the Civil War. The complexities of this time period cannot reduced to 20+ minutes. History is never so one-sided.

Would you argue that he and Washington would have gotten along well?

@@cruizy5955 That's an interesting question. On a cultural level, there would be barriers. Grant was born to a family that was only 1-2 generations into the middle class, whereas Washington was from as close to an aristocracy as there was in Virginia colony. Grant was a salt of the earth kind of a guy. It's true that he inherited slaves through his wife, but he caused a small scandal by doing manual labor with them in his farm. The video also makes his taste for liquor a thing. But he was also easily led by the hand. (His administration is historically remembered as one of the most corrupt, and the word "lobbyist" was wrongly claimed to have been coined during the Grant administration.) Maybe the greatest difference between Washington and Grant is their military record. Grant's successes were the result of his taking chances, which he could afford to do for the resource and people rich Union. Unlike Grant, Washington lost more battles than he won, often due to lack of resources and low morale. What made Washington brilliant was he had a big picture understanding that Pyrrhic victories for the English, and not strategic defeats, would win the war for the colonies. As was mentioned in the Revolutionary War video, Washington's strength was he made the most of his advisors--which was a characteristic of the Washington presidency as well. (It also tends to be the characteristic that the most successful blue bloods have in common.) And it also contrasts with Grant--who had the personality of a bold maverick. He was at his best when he stood out of a crowd. Washington was at his best when he brought people together. Their ideals may also have been different. Washington was shrewd and cynical, which probably permitted him to do immoral things--slavery, adultery, etc. Washington also famously believed the US would not last 20 years under the 1786 Constitution--he believed Civil War was inevitable. Grant was a kind of lazy idealist and only began to sympathize with Abolition in the late 1850s. But Washington was moved by the occupation of Boston, which was when he began to identify with the Revolutionaries. At that point, he believed the colonies finally had a just cause for rebellion. This is why I think Washington would not have sided with the Confederacy. Washington, mind you an elitist, was reserved and conservative with regard to when a people can revolt from their nation. He would have seen the Confederacy, which seceded before Lincoln was sworn in, as merely criminals. So I think Washington and Grant's political views would not have separated them, they may have hypothetically brought them together. And I will say that Washington did play favorites in his army, and he favored bolder generals. My belief is that Washington could have brought the best out of someone like Grant. But their relationship would never have been equals. Washington had a more continent leadership style, whereas Grant had a sensitivity that could be taken advantage of--and probably was what led him to drink. But it is an unlikely friendship that hypotherically could have lasted a long time, despite some huge differences in the men themselves.

*General Grant has joined the game*

The guy had great military tactic, but he owned and beat about 200 slaves, and was fighting for the state right to own slaves, so that he and his people (the white rich) could continue to benefit off free labor at the cost of jobs for poor white people. Nothing to admire about him. He was certainly a formidable bad guy. That's about it. He was no hero. And don't forget that for all his military "heroics", it was US Americans he was killing, and he was part of a foreign enemy nation that attacked the US first. ----- "Lee’s heavy hand on the Arlington, Virginia, plantation, Pryor writes, nearly led to a slave revolt, in part because the enslaved had been expected to be freed upon their previous master’s death, and Lee had engaged in a dubious legal interpretation of his will in order to keep them as his property, one that lasted until a Virginia court forced him to free them." - The Atlantic Lee's words: "The painful discipline they [black people] are undergoing, is necessary for their instruction as a race, & I hope will prepare & lead them to better things. How long their subjugation may be necessary is known & ordered by a wise Merciful Providence." Lee's words: "that unless some humane course is adopted, based on wisdom and Christian principles, you do a gross wrong and injustice to the whole negro race in setting them free" --- "Lee worked the slaves for about five years in order to pay off legacies associated with his father-in-law’s estate. “He was utilizing the slave labor in order to pay the legacies,” Reeves explained. Lee wanted to work the slaves beyond the five-year limit stated in his father-in-law’s will. Lee fought in court to keep the slaves working because he didn’t know if he would be able to pay off his legacies. Wesley Norris was born a slave on the plantation that Lee managed after his father-in-law died. Norris testified during the court fight that Lee beat him when he tried to run away. “Every one of the facts in Wesley Norris’ account has been shown to be true,” John Reeves [historian] noted. " - AP news --- "Robert E. Lee personally owned slaves that he inherited upon the death of his mother, Ann Lee, in 1829. (His son, Robert E. Lee Jr., gave the number as three or four families.) Following the death of his father-in-law, George Washington Parke Custis, in 1857, Lee assumed command of 189 enslaved people, working the estates of Arlington, White House, and Romancoke. Custis’ will stipulated that the enslaved people that the Lee family inherited be freed within five years. Lee, as executor of Custis’ will and supervisor of Custis’ estates, drove his new-found labor force hard to lift those estates from debt. Concerned that the endeavor might take longer than the five years stipulated, Lee petitioned state courts to extend his control of enslaved people. The Custis bondspeople, aware of their former owner’s intent, resisted Lee’s efforts to enforce stricter work discipline. " - the American Civil War Museum

@@georockstar09 This, imagine if Robert E Lee fought with the north. The war would have been over in 6 months. Besides, at the end of the day he was American so he's not exactly the villian. Seems more like misguided rivalry if this was a book.

@@funmitalabi9607 Well, the same argument could be said about certain Nazi generals. He was a villain. He stood for slavery and disunity. The south had seceded, so he was no longer US American during the war. He was a Confederate. Confederate = /= US American. Misguided rivalry? No. Desire to keep a population enchained to profit off them, more likely. That's all the North really wanted, was to end slavery. Rich white southerners could have given those jobs to poor white people instead of owning black slaves. They chose not to do that.

@@georockstar09 The war was not about slavery at all until making it about slavery benefitted the North by keeping Britian out of the war. The war was about the North wanting to keep the colonies united and the South wanting to be separated because they fully believed the north was trying to undermine their success by taking away thier biggest source of income. (Which is the slaves who worked for free, so more money. Why would anyone want to pay the poor anything when they can have free labor?) Does that make it right? Absolutely not, but it's far from the absolute evil that was the Nazis. This is a time where humans had just discovered their *basic human rights* because human nature is truly evil. Before the colonies, mercantilism was the prime system which is literally the country with the most money is the most powerful. It creates stingy people, and the colonies originated from Britian who fit money hungry to the letter T. Evey country at the time had enslaved people even if slavery was banned. (The Berlin Conference). The North was demanding the South to do something out of the social norms at the time. To be fair, I'd be hesitant too to take up such a deal just cause it's fair when history makes it very clear what European countries like Britian and France do to underdeveloped countries they think they can imperialize and control just cause they have the power to. Especially with the way Britian monitors the colonies despite them gaining independence.

@@darkahrenn1570 everyone already knows that.. Southerns still try to claim the civil war was not about slavery even though every state's succession letter mentioned slavery as a reason and the Confederate constitution included slavery as a right..

Ya ever think about the people in forced labor camps or who were slaves? Yeah, they were never happy after they had been unfairly captured.

@@helo6824 regardless, his point about Lincoln still stands

@@Joelc0715 true

Fanoren Gaming god I love lee

That made me emotional

Lee was a nice guy, just on the wrong side

Hey

Donovan Lee was loyal to Virginia, if Virginia was a northern free state which stayed loyal to the union, Lee would’ve fought on the union’s behalf

So is lee. Despite his side no denying he was a genius.

@@npc2153 yep even Grant himself gave him his respect

@@npc2153 unfortunately you're right

He is pretty cool, his only downfall was his waste of lives. He got trained in 1840’s warfare which was very different, meaning he was kind of in the same boat as old WW1 generals. Still really good through, we needed more generals like him.

Lol the originally simp Abe simped to grant

Jeremy Meier respect. I am from Kansas and knowing the conflict that was in my home state I too feel patriotic for Lincoln.

Only if you know the trie story and not the myth behind Lincoln and freeing the slaves

@@joshlanier8567 Hey. Could you not?

Lincoln wanted to send all blacks to africa. It's not as it seems

Esad Ozdemir get off buzfeed

In hindsight it's pretty bizarre how well he kept it together under the circumstances. Compared to someone like Robespierre if we stay in OverSimplified territory who completely unraveled under the pressure of a revolution.

@@AliceDiableaux its why he is remembered as one of the greatest Presidents of all time. Other presidents saw us through world wars, but they never had to deal with a war in their back yards against people they once called countrymen. To see a nation through a civil war like that, its nothing short of miraculous

Jrey1803 I got chills

The way he posses as we think there will be a gunshot. Then to only have his voice come back is a powerful move. From that, you know that Lincoln is his all-time favorite president.

You wanna know something about John Wilkes Booth he was DEMOCRAT

Me too.

The actor was actually quite famous at the time, not washed up. Doesn't make him any less of a bastard though.

My mom was also slave like me and a 13-year-old sister (to 12 February)

I think it’s interesting and sad. I think ultimately Lincoln’s death helped to create an event that the entire country could mourn and bring us together.

When a tyrant gets shot😭😭🤣🤣
