Abraham Lincoln is my TOTAL hero, though I never met him. I wish I could have met him, but he was here in another time and historical period of the world. He made a HUGE difference in not just US History, but WORLD history as well in freeing the slaves, other countries caught on. I feel that our country was in total darkness during slave times. In the South, there are still mansions galore and I feel that this is old money from slave times to a great degree. I feel that God gave us Abraham Lincoln and I know in my heart that he was a true man of God. I wish others would follow in his footsteps as he was an excellent example for people to live by. May God almighty bless him. Amen.
