Of all of my favorite Presidents of the United States of America -- from FDR to Eisenhower & JFK to Obama & Biden -- Abraham Lincoln is, by far, the leader I am most grateful for.
After all, Honest Abe led our country through the most difficult, divisive, and destructive eras of domestic American History. A time when Southern viewed slavery as a constitutional right and some Northerns viewed it as a political tool. A time when battles were decided by unbelievably large sums of mutual casualties and human suffering. And Lincoln still managed to successfully abolish slavery and save the Union despite the doubt and the darkness
But, nevertheless, due to the hateful, drunken deeds of a disenfranchised extremist, Abe, himself, was never able to experience a period of American reconciliation and a chance for Americans to live in peace. That was taken away from him -- perhaps this, along w/ the pain of losing his son, is one of the greatest tragedies of the American Civil War. Regardless, we, Americans, remember our most honest presidents and project eternal gratitude for his leadership and sacrifice.
