Making Grant the commander of the army.
The best i way can utilize my knowledge to answer this is to let you know who he ran up against. As he entered the 1860 presidential election, Lincoln was not favored to win the Republican Presidential nomination, because of the South's dislike of him and his views on slavery. He was finally chosen his party's nominee with Hannibal Hamlin as his running mate. Abraham Lincoln was elected the 16th President on November 6, 1860, defeating Douglas, John Bell, and John C. Breckinridge. Hope this helps... John McCain I believe.
Before becoming the US president Lincoln's position on slavery in Washington DC was similar to that of Henry Clay. As a matter of principle he favored emancipation in the capitol. On the matter of constitutional interpretation, he believed that the Federal government had the power to end slavery in Washington DC. With that said, Lincoln, as a matter of prudence argued that it was too risky to attempt, and unlikely to succeed.
