	Clement Laird Vallandigham - LoveToKnow 1911
		CLEMENT LAIRD VALLANDIGHAM (1820-71), American politician, was born in New Lisbon, Ohio, on the 29th of July 1820.
		He was educated in the common schools and afterwards studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1842.
		He was fanatically devoted to the Constitution as he understood that document, and in his course during the war he was not, as his enemies asserted, trying to aid the Confederates, but merely desirous of restoring "the Union as it was." He died in Lebanon, Ohio, on the 17th of June 1871.

	Copperheads (politics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The most famous Copperhead was Clement L. Vallandigham, who was a serious thorn in President Lincoln's side.
		The name Copperheads was given to them by Republicans, probably derived from the venomous snake (the Copperhead) that strikes without warning — though some Copperheads reinterpreted this insult as a term of honor, and wore copper liberty-head coins as badges.
		Nevertheless, many with Copperhead sentiments actively participated in politics, and Vallandigham's presence at the 1864 Democratic party convention in Chicago was a poorly-kept secret (though he had nominally been expelled from Union-controlled areas); this convention adopted a largely Copperhead political platform.
