A man who would be described , as well above the contemporary Americans by that time, and he was one of the most despised , hated , vilified , and much hunted man , who the likes of John Wilkins Booth , Jefferson Davis , and others in his administration , and connived with the this Booth , southerner hardliner , racist , and slave supporter , to assassinate him at the Ford" s theater.This is man with a noble character , humble President who guided , and commandeered , the union army to an impossible victory , against Robert Lee , Stonewall Jackson , General Hood, and General Picket.May he rest in peace in his tomb , about 150 years after.

The July 7th address is almost never mentioned, I'm glad that got a nod.
