15859Lincoln Abraham. The Republican Party Vindicated--The Demands of the South Explained. Speech of Hon. Abraham Lincoln of Illinois at the Cooper Institute New York City February 27 1860. 16 pages caption title as issued. Lincoln's Historic Cooper Union discourse which catapulted him to serious presidential consideration and provided a cogent and widely-publicized argument that slavery was and always had been contrary to American values. <br/><br/>Lincoln's great Cooper Union speech argues that the Framers and early Congresses contemplated a narrow role for slavery. Examining the constitutional and early Congressional debates he demonstrates that contemporary statements viewed slavery "as an evil not to be extended but to be tolerated and protected only because of and so far as its actual presence among us makes that toleration and protection a necessity." Lincoln's argument received wide press coverage; it catapulted him into presidential contention for its great contribution placed the new Republican Party at the center of American constitutional and legal thought rather than an unacceptable extreme paving the way for his 1860 presidential win on the Republican ticket. An unusual 16-page issue of Lincoln's Cooper Union discourse followed at the middle of page 9 by John Hickman's July 24 1860 campaign speech. Page 16 prints Stephen Douglas' endoursement of the Dred Scott Decision and criticisms of his doctrine of Popular Sovereignty. Most copies print Lincoln's speech only in 8 pages. Scattered foxing dusting blank margin chipped not affecting text. Very good copy of this historic speech by Abraham Lincoln presaging his presidential nomination. unknown books
