Quote
Abraham Lincoln:
I did say *some* colored men, the intelligent, the educated, and veterans, I qualified it.
James Ashley:
Mr. Stevens is furious. He wants to know why you qualified it.
Schuyler Colfax:
No one heard the "intelligent" or the "educated" part. All they heard was the first time any president has ever made mention of Negro voting.
Abraham Lincoln:
Still, I wish I'd mentioned it in a better speech.
James Ashley:
Mr. Stevens also wants to know why you didn't make a better speech.
