"...he was very reluctant to end slavery until nearly the very end of the war." -- true, he did not want to further provoke sectionalism by prematurely making the rebellion a war to end slavery. He wanted to put down the rebellion and preserve the Union that was attacked at Fort Sumter.

"...he was the last president to allow a new slave state into the Union in 1863." -- this is just a weak argument. Technically it was Congress that admitted the state and using this argument would be like saying George W. Bush was the president that allowed terrorists to attack the nation.

"...read the E.P., it doesn't free anybody. Slaves were kept working on plantations within Union controlled areas up until the end of the war." -- true, the Emancipation Proclamation techically freed no one. Union victory in the war and the Thirteenth Amendment did however. The Emancipation Proclamation was a symbolic document that showed the world that the United States was attacking the root of the Confederate war effort.

"...The Union army BOUGHT slaves from loyal plantation owners for about $300 a head to serve in the army, and were not freed until their service was completed. Making Lincoln's government the largest slave owner in that part of the world." -- ? without primary source documentation, this is just fiction.

"...he was a racist, and believed in slave removal from the United States." -- true, what mid-nineteenth-century American wasn't? Very few. Even the strongest abolitionists were not promoters of equality.

"...He was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of freed slaves left to die on a L'lle a Vache off Haiti." -- again, what is your source?

"...the slaves, more than any law passed or the help of any white man, freed themselves by destroying the institution with the added help by the effects of the war on it." -- true.
