4. afaik...
it's basically a democrat. Lincoln was a republican, which at that time was the party of anti-slavery. the dem's were what came to be known later as dixi-crats. the parties have pretty much flipped since lincoln's time.

6. A Republican that cares.
I think there are only a few left outside captivity. Maybe only three or four but close to extinction.
