Buchanan didn't cause the civil war. Get real. Nobody tried harder to stop it than Lincoln. He even wanted the federal government to buy the slaves from the landowners over time. The civil war was foreordained and bound to happen. Our civil rights baptism of blood. Our great spiritual crucible. You demean it when you say Buchanan caused it.
