On the Fact that Historians Love to Point Out that William Seward Frequently Referred to Slavery as Intolerable, Unjust, and Inhumane but NEVER the Fact that the Dude Didn't Want to Live with Black Folks, Stated that He "Looked Forward to the Natural Elimination of Blacks In America", and Actually Described "Negroes" as "a Foreign and Feeble Element, a Pitiful Exotic, Unnecessarily Transplanted Into Our Field, and Which it Is Unprofitable to Cultivate"

Yeah, he and Lincoln were "rivals" alright; rivals in terms of who hated blacks more............................................................................................P.S. And, yes, the folks who "unnecessarily transplanted" these blacks "into our field" (post the British of course) were slavers from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York; his fellow Yanks, in other words.
