Definently B. I think this because of the fact that all the founding fathers wanted us to be a Union, not seperated. Hope this helped! Thanks!

Answer 2

B) The founding fathers sought to form a perpetual union of states.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well both Lincoln and Lee were great and important leaders during the civil war, although on opposite sides he showed strong and ability in fighting for what they think was right for the country.

Lincoln's speech at Gettysburg highlighted the importance and desire for a perpetual union of states. Lee demonstrated the same desire, but in a more intimate and personal way in "Letter to His Son".
