Don't forget that starting with 1.04, CSA get more VP each turn (not much, but this is better than the pre-patch situation where USA was receiving more). And with higher VP (compared to your opponent), FE will steadily rise.
As for the Emancipation proclaimation: The USA need 80 morale to issue it, the condition is not much stringent, because the AI must have a real chance in issuing it.
About the why of the Foreign Entry fall, this can lead us to a prolonged historical discussion. Let's just say that it is widly accepted that the British would have been even more reluctant to lend an hand to the CSA supporting slavery if USA openly recognized that the slavery system should not be maintained.
Pocus - I agree with your points -
but 80 NM isn't that a little too low ?
f.e. 90 NM ?
and what is the effect on the borderstates ? perhaps a double event can exist - where one excludes the other. F.e. after some date, Lincoln could emancipate with NM at 80 or higher, with nasty consequences for some border states. Before that date emancipation happens if NM is 90 or higher, with no nasty consequences for the border states.
the effect of the event should still be the effect on FE. On that you are right,

90 would be a real problem, because many players manage to bring the Union under 90 by the end of 62, so you would get a kind of downward spiral here for the AI: her inability to maintains a good morale hamper the situation further by preventing the emancipation declaration, which has several effects, one being to boost a bit the morale up.
The border states lose loyalty toward the Union when the declaration is issued, as it happened historically.
