No, he didn’t try to ‘send’ them anywhere. That word implies force. Lincoln supported voluntary colonization for freed slaves, and also supported their right to remain in the US if they so desired. From your link:

Quote:. In his annual December message to Congress that year (his second "State of the Union" Message), he reiterated his strong support for government expenditure on colonization for those who wanted to go, but he also noted that objections to free blacks remaining in the United States were baseless, "if not sometimes malicious."

Which is why i said he tried .I never said he succeeded. Nor did i say it wasn't voluntary . Nor does it imply force  by defualt .
