Do you think president Lincoln and president Johnson were wise to not seek harsh treatment of the former confederate states? Why or why not?

When the war ended Lincoln wanted it to be a time of healing and reuniting of the country. This is the sign of a true leader. The Civil War wasn't about slavery, it was about one or more states dictating how one or more other states should be. Remember it was the Northern States that started slavery. So to punish the Southern States would mean punishing innocent citizens of those states who were pushed into a war they didn't want but went to fight next to their brothers and neighbors. It became personal when their lands were invaded and courthouses were burned in an attempt to destroy the southern states.
