radical republicans/ not complete..

As radical Republicans of the untied states of America , we want to keep unity within our nation by protecting the rights of freed slaves ; they hold the right of to practice , "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" and we want to grant justice for the free men woo been deprived of the their rights by nationalizing civil rights. as radical republicans, we  came upon obstacles of the reconstruction of the south. for example, the ten percent plan, which provided full pardon for the southerners, but only 10 percent of the population in each state who tool an other to set up an loyal government. we opposed the 10 percent plan, so pushed congress's Wade Davis bill it required 50 percent of the voter to take the oath which passed in 1864; how ever Lincoln vetoed the bill.
