I think the Civil war Would have kept going To be honest. Lincol was so for keeping the Union together and only one one part of the Confederacy surrendered. Lincoln might have thought that they could keep going and over power the South.
If lincoln had lived the healing process would of been a lot quicker. The North would of not wanted to hang or punish the south people. and i think slavery would of ended a lot quicker also.
I think that the Civil War would have ended more peacefully and that all Americans black or white would be equal to each other sooner. I think if Lincoln would have stayed alive that he would have stiched back the nation together than the other presidents did.
i think that he would have ended slavery sooner and the nort;h would have won the war sooner there for the slaves would havee had a better live for the kids and family.
