Assume the role of chief adviser to the president (United States: Abraham Lincoln or Confederate States: Jefferson Davis). It is April 15, three days following the bombardment and capture of Fort Sumter by Southern P.G.T. General Beauregard. Your president is unsure whether to raise armies and pursue war or open negotiations with the other side and find a path to a peaceful solution to the military crisis (up to this point, secession has been a political issue).
What advice and counsel will you give him? What position do you advocate for (war or peace)? Why? Write this journal as an official statement from the chief adviser (you) to the president.
Your journal entry must be at least 200 words in length. No references or citations are necessary.
