Each camp running a candidate against Lincoln. This was about power. “The main point of confrontation between the parties was the expansion into the west and the accompanying question about slavery. The States rights principals of the south made the South very hard to govern effectively, as proved by the Civil war, the Southern government was far more ineffective in prosecuting the war than their Northern counterparts. ” [/QUOTE]
