What does this quote say about Lincoln's feelings about the South's discontent? He was more concerned with building the economy of the North than dealing with the South's discontent. He felt that since the Constitution did not apply to the Southern states, they shouldn't complain about their rights. He felt that the people of the South had been denied many of their Constitutional rights. He felt that the people of the South had not been denied any of their Constitutional rights.
heres the quote In his first inaugural address, Abraham Lincoln stated the following: All profess to be content in the Union if all constitutional rights can be maintained. Is it true, then, that any right plainly written in the Constitution has been denied? I think not. Happily, the human mind is so constituted that no party can reach to the audacity of doing this. Think, if you can, of a single instance in which a plainly written provision of the Constitution has ever been denied. If by the mere force of numbers a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written constitutional right, it might in a moral point of view justify revolution; certainly would if such right were a vital one. But such is not our case.

Why was the Battle of Gettysburg an important turning point in the war? The Union pushed the Southern armies back into Virginia. Washington, DC was finally protected from the Confederate army. Union troops received the food and supplies they needed. The South was able to advance toward Philadelphia.
