President Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address performed by President Barack Obama.
The Gettysburg Address - November 19, 1863:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who died here that the nation might live. This we may, in all propriety, do. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, while it can never forget what they did here. It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us. That from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain. That the nation shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Only as an adult, did I realize the magnitude of Lincoln's words. His was a beautiful mind who could captivate the sacred imagination of America with his underspoken and honest expression of leadership. An amazing man who understood that the Union would always be a work -in-progress.

As someone who is 15, I can say that we the people after those who served to protect our country and future shall continue the work laid out by activities of the past. No one shall be judged for who they are, what they believe in, what they like or even what they look like. In the south, no couple weather they are gay men or women, male, female or transgender shall have to cower in fear of beginning killed by those who wish to stop what they believe is a sin. A black man shall never have to fear being shot or arrested for walking through a white neighborhood just to get home quickly. We the people shall forever be united to stand up with our allies to oppose those whom wish to define us, Citizens of this great nation.

Look it up if you don't believe me. Of course he should still be respected as a visionary for his time. Racism was the accepted belief back then, and the majority of Northerns weren't fighting for black rights

Lincoln had the biggest challenge of all presidents ever. Yes, more so than Roosevelt or Truman. Lincoln did not face an external enemy. He faced his own people torn up by ideologies. And you can only appreciate that if you knew what it means to point a gun at your own brother. Obama may not have achieved a lot, but USA, to an outsider like myself, looked more united and coherent during Obama's presidency than it looks today after him.

“Washington was a typical American. Napoleon was a typical Frenchman, but Lincoln was a humanitarian as broad as the world. He was bigger than his country-bigger than all the Presidents together. “We are still too near to his greatness,” Tolstoy concluded, “but after a few centuries more our posterity will find him considerably bigger than we do. His genius is still too strong and too powerful for the common understanding, just as the sun is too hot when its light beams directly on us." Leo Tolstoy's thoughts on Lincoln. He will always be, without doubt, the greatest American, President, and Statesman the world has ever seen. At least in the humble opinion of this Canadian.

Not the standard Bliss version - close but no cigar. "This we may, in all propriety do"- loses the rhythm and poetry of "It is all together fitting and proper that we should do this". Obama also misses out the '"Under God"" bit in wishing the the nation "a new birth of freedom". I'm no theist, but leaving it out again spoils the flow. Obama is an erudite, accomplished man. It's a shame he's not also a poet. The Address, to my mind is still one of the greatest political speeches of all time but in Obama's hands it is merely "very good"- and I'm a Brit!

There were five reporters present when Lincoln spoke his "few suitable words" but they all differ in some aspects. Obviously, it was Edward Everett who gave the actual Gettysburg Address and he spoke for two hours! Still, the Bliss version is taken as standard as it was the only version that Lincoln signed. It is what he would have said if he had had a little time to think about it - and I still think it's wonderful!

There have hardly been any American Presidents since Lincoln to even approach 50% of what he accomplished, and the man he was. Only close candidate would be FDR, for his over 12 consecutive years as President, and leadership through the Great Depression and World War 2. However, FDR led a much different country than the one Lincoln did nearly 70 years earlier. And much easier to unite the American people against common foe, than to lead the country through a Civil War.

Vilkas LBJ visited Gettysburg, but not when he was in office as president. Wilson visited on July 3; 134 days before the anniversary. In my previous comment, I was directly speaking about presidents (while in office at the time) visited Gettysburg on Nov 19 because the person was talking about the "Anniversary Remembrance.". Out of the recent 28 presidents since Lincoln, 27 didn't achieve this. Only William H. Taft did.

@Strollmanx 9 жыл бұрын

Donald Tramp 2016 Wilson did so on that date in concert with the reunion of the soldiers, he did not decide the date but this was when the huge gathering for the milestone was to be celebrated. Kennedy of course made his own private visit. Obama's swearing in with the Lincoln bible was as it turned out to be all show. Lincoln was one to unite a country in the worst of times whereas Obama has done nothing but divide. Right out of the gate he moved to socialize healthcare and set the precedence for his entire career. Zero Republican votes, alienating half of the population and he has never looked back. I look at all presidents warts and all. I make no excuses for any of them. Obama is a terrible leader. I get no joy saying that. I look at this Iran catastrophe and I can't from any angle see the good in this. Obama is a globalist figure not an American president. His actions indicate that he does not believe in the history of this country. He is not my president. He is a disgrace compared with the likes of Washington, Adams, Jackson, Garfield, Theodore Roosevelt and Lincoln. He has none of their qualities or leadership abilities and has as Theodore Roosevelt once said " the backbone of a chocolate éclair".

@DonaldTramp-gp1so 8 жыл бұрын

Vilkas "Obama is a terrible leader. I get no joy saying that. I look at this Iran catastrophe and I can't from any angle see the good in this." I'm not Obama's biggest fan - far far from it. I definitely wouldn't say he was a great leader, but I wouldn't say he was the worst president. In relation to the Iran deal, the deal isn’t perfect. No negotiation ever is. Iranian leaders have been on a superhighway, for the last 10 years, to create a nuclear weapon or a nuclear weapons program, with no speed limit. They've gone from 106 centrifuges to 19,0000 centrifuges in the last decade. This agreement will bring it down to 5,0000 - all of which will be under the support vision of the IAEA. The same is for the number of uranium going from 1200KG to 300KG. Iran's money was frozen all over the world, and America wouldn't let them get *their* money back until they agreed to under their nuclear program. It's not Israel vs Iran, or America vs Iran, or Muslim vs Jew, etc. It is those who want war vs. those who want peace. Khamenei has more in common with the Republicans and Netanyahu than he does with the Iranian people.

There are five known copies of the speech in Lincoln's handwriting, each with a slightly different text, and named for the people who first received them: Nicolay, Hay, Everett, Bancroft and Bliss. Two copies apparently were written before delivering the speech, one of which probably was the reading copy. The remaining ones were produced months later for soldier benefit events. Despite widely-circulated stories to the contrary, the president did not dash off a copy aboard a train to Gettysburg. Lincoln carefully prepared his major speeches in advance; his steady, even script in every manuscript is consistent with a firm writing surface, not the notoriously bumpy Civil War-era trains. Additional versions of the speech appeared in newspapers of the era, feeding modern-day confusion about the authoritative text. Lincoln speech text is in the public domain; the organization, remaining text, and photo on this page are copyright 2018 Abraham Lincoln Online. All rights reserved.

I have studies this for speech and debate. the actual reason is that, in the bible, the age of human life is said as "three score and ten" or 70 years. 87 is more than 70. When Lincoln said "four score and seven", he meant that most people who were alive when the nation was founded were now dead, and that America could no longer rely on the founding father for guidance. That is why he phrased it as "four score and seven", to contrast the then widely-known "three score and ten" Hope that makes sense.

From my point of view America has lost these values. Greed and corruption and power have taken control. What the people need is a leader that is strong and willing to lead them into the future a symbol of peace and pride a standard bearer for the young and old to look at and follow. Someone who will stand up and say enough is enough. That someone as to have the ball's to lead the fight and listen to those around them and be able to tell the church that thier time is over. And lock up these things that pray on children for their own pleasure. Time for the truth to come out and peace to take control. Archangel Michael

President Obama isn't my cup of tea. I'm appreciative he did this. For all of us.

The greatest speech written by the greatest president who freed the slaves, being recited by the first African American president in US history. The poetic reality here...

President Obama was asked to read President Lincoln's original draft, in which "Under God" was not included

Dare we pray that there will _never_ be a Donald Trump reading of Lincoln's greatest speech.

I would rather that, and have the man acknowledge the greatness of President Lincoln, than to see all the comments online espousing Trump as a greater President than Lincoln. That's just a bit too far, if you ask me.

I don't like that the actual speech was not precisely quoted in this video. Every single word put down by Lincoln should remain untouched by those who choose to repeat this monumental speech in our country's history. Once you begin to substitute or abridge a great work you reduce it's impact and historical significance. I know it seems a minor petty detail but words, and how they are used have historical importance.
