Gone Fishin'
We had some threads about slavery in a surviving CSA. Many said that slavery would've survived in the south long after the end of the Civil War, because slavery was the whole raison d'être of the Confederacy.
But what if, despite Lincoln's election, the south didn't seceded (maybe the southern states realize that they couldn't win such a war and never start it).
a) How will a Lincoln presidency look like without the war?
b) Will Lincoln be able to abolish slavery?
c) When will slavery be abolished in the US (by constitutional amendment or by any other means)?
- Between 1861 and 1865 (during Lincoln's [first] term)
- Just a bit later than OTL (after 1865)
- Later than OTL
- After 1888, when Brazil abolished slalvery in OTL
- Or during the 20th century
