If Lincoln had been a robot....

Puck in the comments posted the picture of Lincoln before I had. I did not check the comments before posting my last entry and did not realize I was repeating established evidence. --- I do wholly agree that Southern Rednecks would redo the Civil War in a heart beat. I have a teacher who flies a confederate flag in his office (He used to live in Mississippi before moving to Utah). But the practicality of this is moot. first I will say that forward time travel has been proven possible. But no evidence shows that backward time travel is possible. Proposed possibilities include Worm Holes, but no worm hole has ever been observed, so the only way to get a worm hole is to make it. It is unestablished how to do this. And if one was made it more than likely would not stay open for more than a few seconds (because the fabric of space is fragile and violently shaking according to M-Theory) I argue that backward time travel either is impossible or sufficient time will pass before it is that the war will be forgotten (Canadian's don't remember the war of 1812, I know since my grandfather grew up there), and a British kid at my school had never heard of the American Revolution which shocked me). Keep in mind that the Civil War was only 150ish years ago. Also note that New York once considered seceding from the Union but there isn't even a chance that the concept could arise today. Star Trek! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! There is only one reason why I would use so many Exclamation marks. I consider myself a Trekky. I would do no evil to that show which did influence my entry into the realm of Astronomy and Astrophysics (and SciFi of course). If my comment came of as rude toward Star Fleet then I had better clarify it. My point was that entities like Star fleet with Laws like the Prime Directive did not exist until 1966 when Star Trek first debuted. since the Civil War occurred about 100 years earlier it did not apply. Plus I pointed out that many times a rule like this is broken. My example was of the Piggies, a primitive race of intelligent creatures from the planet Lusitania, in the book Speaker for the Dead. There was a law of minimal interaction with them, but several people disobeyed that law and began sharing agriculture technologies and eventually pluming and electricity. Doing this gave rise to the sequel of the novel and is a main focus. Again I must bring up Speaker for the Dead as it shares an important idea pertaining to your next point. You said that an alien race would consider us like animals. In the Enderverse (consisting of Ender's Game and all following novels, including Speaker for the Dead) there is a concept called Demosthenes' Hierarchy of Exclusion. In it there are two words used, Ramen and Verelse. Ramen is a Human of another species, or an Alien that we can converse with. This includes us, that visiting alien and all other intelligent aliens. Verelse means an animal, beasts with which we can never communicate fully. This includes Dogs, Zoo animals and any non-intelligent animal else where. I argue that we would be seen differently than a zoo animal because we are Ramen (or whatever word they would like to use) and not Verelse. Also, if they took humans at random then it should be expected that each country would receive reports of abduction in proportion to their population. But the US has many time more than any other country True the Merrimack was effective, but it was a crude design. All it was was a regular ship with metal plates placed on it. Whereas the USS Monitor was a completely new design. Therefore the North was more innovative than the south. My main point was that a Robot Lincoln would be instantly recognized. Bringing up the perverted example of Roxxxy, even she (it? ) would be recognized as a robot and not human. So I conclude: 1) My case fits better with History Book history. 2) I have shown that the South couldn't effectively create the lincoln robot.
