Inaugural speech:
"I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so."

THE IMPORTANT GOAL WAS TO STOP THE REBELLION AND SAVE THE UNION. the war was not fought for some sort of idea, It was business and economics in which Southern and northern states differed which eventually brought about conflict.
