aug 20, 1862 - Horace Greeley asks Lincoln to enlist blacks in Union army

Lincoln replies that his goal is to "save the Union...not to save or destroy Slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves, I would do it..." [zinn, 191]
