Abraham's concern.

Abraham Lincoln's concern was mostly to save the union and not slavery because even though he still felt that african americans are no equal he didnt really care about slavery. He used slavery to win the election but he mostly wanted to take slavery out of the picture so the north and the south could become a union. He wanted the United States to be indivisible. He knew that many hated him because he wanted to stop slavery but he knew that was not his main goal .
