Who Really Murdered Abraham Lincoln is an Ongoing Debate in the United States.

---

People want to know who really murdered Abraham Lincoln, and when one takes a look at history, they can see the answer is not very easy to come to.

Just like the assassination of JFK, the assassination of Abraham Lincoln is filled with information that can be confusing, because even though the shooter is known, no one stood up to admit their involvement with the assassination.

In order to understand the assassination of Lincoln, one must examine the Confederate Secret Service and what it was capable of.

The secret service was much like the CIA of today in the way it felt as if it was above the law and it would resort to any action necessary in order t gain leverage against the Union.

Not only did they want to see Lincoln either kidnapped or assassinated, they also wanted to assassinate Andrew Johnson in order to initiate a hostile takeover of the Union, so the group who really murdered Abraham Lincoln also wanted to take out the vice president.

It has been widely reported that John Wilkes Booth attempted to see Johnson the day of the assassination, and while some think it was because Johnson was in on the murder, it makes more sense to believe Booth actually planned on murdering Johnson.

After all, Johnson was a part of the administration that Booth and the Confederate secret Service despised and because of that, he would benefit from Johnson’s death, and in addition, there is evidence that there were plans to murder Johnson on the same day as Lincoln.

It was hoped that once the Union lost its leadership, it would crumble and the actions of the civil war would be undone.

That being said, who really murdered Abraham Lincoln?

The secret service murdered him, and since Booth was a part of that service, he was the trigger man.

Jefferson Davis was also a part of the service, and he did little to hide his happiness after Lincoln’s death, only saying it would have been better if the secretary of state and Andrew Johnson would have died along with him.

This was a conspiracy by the radicals in the South to undo what the Civil War had done.

They wanted their slaves and they wanted to secede, and they saw an administration that stood in their way, so they decided to take that administration out.

Racism and Murder

When one asks who really murdered Abraham Lincoln, they must also look as racism as a murderer.

The inevitable defeat of the Civil War was not the main motivator.

The secret service was truly motivated by a racism so deep they could only kill.

They did not like the idea of black people getting rights, and they were willing to kill to stop it.

What they did not realize was it was not just something that Lincoln believed in, but it was beginning to take root around the country.

The Dangers of Secrets

Most Southerners were not aware of the secret society and they did not realize one of their own would go out and murder the President.

At that time, the Union was back on its way, and most Southerners were ready for war and unrest to be over. They did not want the president to die.

In US politics, a president has a target on his back when he expects change.

A progressive president will likely need to be protected because he is in imminent danger.

Politics bring about passion, and passion can bring about murder when a secret society is involved.
