Today in 1865, Republicans passed the 13th Amendment over Democrat opposition. Just like Civil Rights Acts 100 yrs later

@BeschlossDC Imagine that. We had to pass an amendment to state the obvious. That it was immoral to deny any American, his freedom. -
.
@utliberal@BeschlossDC Yould be amazed how many in the South admitted slavery immoral, but money got in the way. -
@CurtisMcurtis3@BeschlossDC I guess then, when we say, "money is the root of all evil" we are not far off?

@BeschlossDC sir, why did Lincoln sign that? What role does the Pres have in amendment process? -
@therealjavery@BeschlossDC The 13th is the only amendment signed by a President. You'd have to ask Abe why he did it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution#Passage_by_Congress …
