Well put. Home schoolers tend to continue to learn their entire life. Thank God Abraham Lincoln was home-schooled.

Since no one's providing any background or context, this quote was stated during a debate for presidency. He was being accused of being an abolitionist, which he denied, because at the time, he wanted to preserve the Union, and he felt emancipation was the biggest danger to it. What he said was probably his own personal belief, and we have to take into account the world he was brought up in, in which blacks were considered inferior by nearly everyone.
