Because most no one actually reads... they simply recite the sound bites and revisionist history that is handled to them.
Lincoln's motivations were to destroy/weaken state's rights and move massive amounts of power to a centralized government... he was successful.
Lincoln was one of the worst presidents this country has ever had... On the level of FDR and Wilson.
