- W2490562011 abstract "From almost the moment the Confederates fired on Fort Sumter, Abraham Lincoln started hearing from friends, supporters, and Republican governors about strong opposition to the war, especially in the lower Midwest. Antiwar Democrats, who were strict constructionists on the Constitution, objected to nearly everything Abraham Lincoln did to wage war: raising troops, suspending habeas corpus, ordering a blockade of Southern ports, and virtually declaring war on the South—all before Congress had even had a chance to meet. By the time Congress convened on July 4, 1861, for a special session, anxious conservative Democrats were convinced that Lincoln was out to usurp American liberties and was well on his way to becoming a tyrant. Caught up in war fever and far from the places where dissent was most apparent, the Eastern press paid no attention. Lincoln did. In his message to Congress, Lincoln explained himself. He had “no choice but to call out the war power of the Government.” When fired upon, the Union had to resort to force for its own protection. He defended his call for troops by reminding members of Congress that Northerners had demanded it and by saying he assumed they would ratify it—as they quickly did. Without specifically mentioning Roger Taney, he argued against the chief justice’s ruling in ex parte Merry man, which held that Lincoln’s suspension of habeas corpus was unconstitutional." @default.
