Compares the Civil War Reconstruction plans of Andrew Johnson, Abraham Lincoln, and the Congress of the time.

A Comparison of the Lincoln, Johnson, and Congressional Plans for Civil War Reconstruction After the Civil War, a great question arose. That question was what was to be done with the former Confederate States of Americas (CSA). Although there were a number of ways to address this critical issue, there were three major attempts: Lincoln's, Johnson's, and Congress's. All three of them wanted to politically restore the USA, but did not pay much attention to …

…that the Union is indivisible an indissoluble so Lincoln was right in that sense. Finally however, the result was achieved and the Union was again whole. If these plans had been more thorough, and paid more attention to Southern economy, the hard feelings that existed for decades between the North and South after the Civil War might not have been so intense. The Civil Rights movement of the 1960's might not have been necessary either.
