Reconstruction Chp 12 The reconstruction All began after the war ended. President Lincoln decided that it wouldn't be able to rebuild the country if he displeased either the north or the south. He decided to make compromises in which he could please both sides. The south needed the North's money to rebuild its self though, so I am not quite sure why Lincoln had to please them! Once Lincoln is killed his Vice President, Andrew Jackson, takes over and basically follows the plan. But the radicals don't like the plan because Jackson is to soft on the south, because he is from the south. But eventually everything works out, even though the African Americans did not get their rights. Which is where the Ku Klux Klan comes into play. They are an all white supremacy group that threatens scares and harms African Americans. "Ku Klux Klan." //Georgia Studies Imagies//. N.p., n.d. Web. 23 Sept. 2015. .
