His legacy would be that he was a courageous man with guts for freeing the slaves and treating all men equal. There were 15 presidents before him that had the same opportunity to make a huge difference for all mankind but chose to ignore it.
I was watching the history channel a few nights ago, and saw a commercial for a show that claims there is a photograph of Abraham Lincoln and John Wilkes Booth together. Is this true?
He was the first president to to take a stand about equality for all people no matter what their color or nationality. I give him all the credit in the world for doing that. There were 15 presidents before him that could have made a difference in equality but chose not to.
Today 203 years ago, our greatest president(in my opinion) was born. The first president who had the guts and courage to see all people as EQUAL. Happy Birthday Abraham Lincoln!!!
Is it true that Abraham Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth, and Edwin Booth had Syphyllis? How did they cure it back then and what were the symptoms? I have read so many times about the three of them having this disease I'm wondering if it's true.
Laurie- When you said after reading Mary's letters, you can understand why Mary's husband drank. Can you elaborate a little on what was in those letters that drove Mary's husband to drink?
