In the course of his Illinois Senatorial campaign against Stephen Douglas in 1858, Abraham Lincoln declared that Congress didn't have power over slavery; that the country would not survive if half were enslaved and half were free; that social and political equality between blacks and whites wasn't good; and that Dred Scott's decision effectively made sovereignty invalid.
