in fact, andrew and washburn would be among the leading advocates for raising black troops. and they would write the salmon -- samuel cameron privately. of course, in the fall of 1861, this is a radical idea. but one in which they believed if the union had embraced this early on, it would have shortened the war. and the frustrations among the populace, it even though a fairly overwhelmingly conservative population perhaps , a shorter war would come about. as the war progresses, and they achieve some modest victories, with the confiscation acts, and ultimately emancipation in 1863, then you find there is another opposition rank among the conservatives. and the people who lead that cadre of enemies would be horatio seymour, who was elected in 1862. and who, in fact, would believe that lincoln is moving the war too quickly because he is a tool of the radicals and it is not until seymour becomes governor, recognizing the war has changed very quickly in two years. seymour comes to resent lincoln for expanding the war too quickly. he believes that lincoln has been moved and prodde

andrew and washburn would be among the leading advocates for raising lack troops -- black troops. course, in the fall of 1861, this is a radical idea. they believed if the union would have embraced this early on, it would have shortened the war. war would comeer about. as the war progresses, and they ,chieve some modest victories then you find there is a nether opposition rank -- another opposition rank among the conservatives. and the people who lead that would be seymour, who was elected in 1862 and would believe that lincoln is moving the war to quickly because he is a tool of the radicals and it is not until seymour becomes governor, recognizing the war has changed very quickly in two years. seymour comes to resent lincoln for expanding the war to quickly -- too quickly. he believes that lincoln has been moved and prodded by these radical political leaders to advance the war and to establish a the revolutionary nature of emancipation and national conscription and black troops. for most conservatives, this was inadically different war 1863 than it was in 1861. especially in rea

version of its operating system as you can see, apple shares up about .2% in the premarket black rock ceo joined andrewjoe. >> i think i'm actually reconfirming what milton friedman said. if you read his whole essay that everyone talks about, he talks about that you need to be connected in your community, especially for small companies back then, in 1970 as global companies we're here in davos, we have communities everywhere we have to be connected with every community. the most important thing i said, and i repeated maybe three times, profits are paramount to everything the company does and their connectivity with their shareholders is about profit what i did say though to remain in front of change, to be a part of a growth environment, i believe the involvement in a community to have a purpose is vital for long term survivability but long-term profitability. and i think most people -- for most people it resonates that, yes, you need to be connected to your employees, you need to be connected with your clients, your communities and you operate. that's really the essence what i'm saying, but most impor

blacks to vote after 1830. before that, a couple of northern states had. obviously slaves were not permitted to vote anywhere. presidents lincoln and andrew johnson had encouraged reconstruction states to allow some african americans to vote, for example, those who read it or had fought in the union army. their advice was ignored by southern states. republicans faced a political dilemma after the civil war. the party wanted to expand its roots into the south. if they didn't do that, it wasn't going to have much chance of being a national party. before the civil war, the republican party had been entirely a sectional party. president lincoln was not even on the ballot in states south of virginia. republicans have a tenuous hold on power at the national level. without black suffrage in the south, the party has very little prospect of success unless they are going to disenfranchise very large numbers of rebel whites, something nobody seems to think was a viable long-term solution. the problem is exacerbated by the fact that the south was going to gain congressional representation as a result of the abolition of slavery with the 13th amendmen

worshiped andrew jackson, would take that stance when secession came about and that he would remain loyal to the union from tennessee. but that's all he wanted. the union restored, slavery over, and blacks living maybe in serfs ndition like perhaps. you bring things back to slavery, as near to slavery as possible, and in fact, when the radical republicans began to institute policies, he vetoed every kind of measure or opposed every measure that they put in place to try to aid the freedmen, to try to transform southern society. and the president is not all powerful obviously, but the president is the leader of the country, is the symbol of the country. the president, whenever he -- almost said he or she, but whenever he is in office -- so far. whenever he is in office, he sends a message about the nature of the society, the society's aspirations, and what did it mean at this particular moment to have a person who was actively opposed to transforming american society at the helm of society? the message that he was sending not just to african-american people but to other whites. people think about race primarily affecting black people or people of color but it affects whites as well.it sen
