- Lincoln’s Plan (10% Plan) Objective: Unity and Reconstruction. Lincoln proposed the Ten Percent Plan in 1863, which allowed a Southern state to be readmitted into the Union once 10% of its voters took an oath of loyalty to the Union. This lenient approach aimed to encourage quick reunification and foster goodwill. Although it sought to integrate freed African Americans into society, it lacked specific protections for their rights, focusing instead on restoring the Union.

- The 1096 Plan, a part of President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society in the 1960s, aimed to combat poverty and racial injustice. It introduced programs like Medicare and Medicaid, improved education, and supported civil rights legislation. It also aimed to create economic opportunities through job creation in impoverished communities. However, the plan faced criticism for expanding government intervention and questioning its effectiveness in addressing poverty's root causes.

- Radical Republicans' Plan Objective: Civil Rights and Political Equality The Radical Republicans pushed for more stringent measures to ensure civil rights for African Americans. They advocated for the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the 14thAmendment, which guaranteed citizenship and equal protection under the law. Their plan aimed not only to unite the country but also to create a foundation for African American political and social equality, directly countering the leniency of Johnson’s approach.
