What issue with Lincoln and Johnson's Reconstruction plans is this cartoon meant to highlight?

Answer 1

the idea that the conflicts between the North and the South can be resolved on their own without outside interference from government leaders

the idea that the South has formed a separate thriving nation that does not need to rejoin the North to prosper

the idea that the plans are reuniting the nation without resolving the fundamental conflicts at the root of the division between North and South

the idea that the conflicts between the North and the South were too big to solve and the regions should be left alone to resolve their own problems
