What was the Southern response to President Lincoln's announced plans for reconstruction?
President Lincoln announced on December 8, 1863 his plans for unifying the nation and his plans for reconstruction were for the most part rejected by the South. The reasons for rejection, however were not all the same. Many Southerners believed that Lincoln was premature in basically predicting the Union would end the Southern rebellion. History does show it was premature. In the Summer of 1864, for example, the Union's overland campaign did not assure victory. In fact, Lincoln was not even sure he would be the Republican Party's nominee. Any Southerners who had never wanted to secede believed that Lincoln's announcement would only cause the South to dig in and fight even harder to avoid defeat. Many Southern politicians used Lincoln's proposal as a chance to ridicule him, and perhaps by doing this aid Southern sympathizers in the North who saw Lincoln and the Republican Party as oppressors.
