Presentation transcript:

The Coming Of Lincoln How did the Kansas Nebraska Act undue the tradition of compromise that was illustrated with the Missouri Compromise & the Compromise of 1850? What was the platform of the Republican party? What did they want to remain free?

 Bleeding Kansas-  Missouri Border Ruffians (crossed and voted illegally)… passage of pro-slavery laws (gag rules etc.).  Rival capitals established with Lawrence being the free soil capital.  The sack of Lawrence- no deaths just vandalism  Pottawatomie Creek- response to the sack of Lawrence Immigrant Aid Societies

 Pro-slavery groups ramrodded a constitution through despite the majority of citizens not wanting Kansas to become a slave state.  Douglas (Northern Democrats- seen as a traitor to the South) vs. Buchanan (Southerners- doughfaces) Lecompton Constitution

 James Buchanan passes the buck to the Supreme Court to make a decision regarding slavery (Chief Justice was close to Buchanan). Scott- 2 owners. 1 st was very lenient and the 2 nd dies. Original owners encourage Scott to sue for freedom. Went to free territory to be freed Dred Scott Case

At Issue: 1.Is Scott free 2.Can Scott sue and be a citizen 3.Can property be banned in Missouri Dred Scott Case Continued

Taney… 1.African Americans can’t use the courts- not citizens (no legal rights). 2.Scott was a slave when sued in Wisconsin territory. Nullifies the Missouri Compromise 3.Slaves are property and property may be maintained in all of the territories Leads to belief that “slave power” dominates all of the Federal government Decision

Douglas up for reelection in the Illinois Senate.  Physical contrasts  House Divided Speech- opening shot  Attempts to corner Douglas as though supporting slavery expansion by backing popular sovereignty  Freeport Doctrine- Douglas’s position that slave codes could be outlawed by state legislatures (alienates Southern voters).  Lincoln was painted as an abolitionist who believed in racial equality- rights of their own labor vs the privileges of citizens.  Party differences 1858 Lincoln Douglas Debates

 John Brown  The Plot  The Raid  Dignity in prison  martyrdom 1859 Harper’s Ferry

 Northern Democrats- Stephen Douglas  Southern Democrats- John Breckenridge  Constitutional Union- John Bell  Republicans- Abraham Lincoln Election of 1860
