thank you for the future

He ♒ AQUARIUS, She SCORPIO ♏ Have you ever watched cloud front grow into a storm? See lightning flashes? Her Sun sign conjuncted Uranus the planet of violence, attacks, inconsistencies. A volatile combination in every respect. They literally lived out their zodiac symbols. 🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

There are a lot of errors in this presentation. One of the worst ones: 49:35 Robert did NOT have his mother committed due to her monomania. It was for her own safety because she suffered from delusions, hallucinations, and paranoia.

30:05 I very highly doubt that they got $20,000 for interior decorating in 1861. In today's dollars, that is about $690,000 (per WestEgg inflation calculator)

Having read several books about the Lincoln’s. It looks like her depression started with the death of her Mother. She didn’t get along with her Step Mother and her Father seemed to not pay much attention to her. What do we know about her during the time Abe broke the Engagement.

Mary Keckley Marys seamstress made the most beautiful dresses for Mary. I hope that someday that Miss Keckley gets respect in death that escaped her in life.

Mary Todd Lincoln was a TARGET as Im not surprised but yet she was considered mentally ill not the ignorant individuals targeting her. Interesting.

If she was jealous it was all part of the mental illness. Back then they did not have Prozac or anti depressants to help her cope with dark days unfortunately

What I most admired about About good old Abraham Lincoln was his calmness-- WISDOM courage and strength. Where there is a strong intelligent woman she will stand by a strong intelligent man with courage,loyalty, and grace.

Mary kept her over spending under wraps from Abraham

Thank you for sharing, your presentation was very good and enjoyed it alot.

Lincoln was very patient with Mary, its telling about him as a husband and father

Lincoln was self confident. Self educated enjoyed 📚 the the theatre he had good humor and would engage in mutual intellectual conversation. His intention was to save the union and that he did. Abe Lincoln was the worlds greatest president.

Mary Todd Lincoln suffered the deaths of her sons and her husband at a young age, it is no surprise she suffered depression. She was the belle of the ball, formally ecucated. Spoke french and english fluently. Well traveled and a good conversatinalist and a quick wit. Abraham and Mary were perfect together.

Lincoln loved small animal's a non drinker non smoker he provided his children and Mary with unconditional love and devotion, they were a fascinating couple to be sure

great speech. love his voice. its simply the best lol

So after POTUS Lincoln scolded Mary Todd about overspending on the White House decorations, did she actually follow the advice??

Um, I think you don't get a classic deep physical depression - which is what it was, as described - in the space of one week. If I may guess, Lincoln broke off the engagement because he ALREADY had fallen into a depression. That's how it goes. Doesn't need to be a trigger, either.

Today's the date of Abraham Lincoln's death, sadly 159 years ago. Thank you for an excellent presentation and glimpse into the marriage of Mary Todd and Abraham- a fascinating duo who endured so many trials, together. Historian Tom McGrath mentions an excellent book, "With Malice Toward None," by Stephen B. Oates; I agree it is an enthralling look into the life of an amazing man.

lovely presentation

We really enjoyed this outstanding lecture - thank you!

Very interesting. Informative and interestingly presented. Thank you!

It's quite a struggle when your husband leaves you at the altar as he isn't sure whether he wants to tell you he has Syphilis. He eluded you (Mary) for a year, contemplating whether he will be upfront or in concealment mode. He comes back to wed you one year later, but chooses to conceal his infection. Years later, your husband has his late stage syphilis infection occur, in which his body is plastered with huge blisters. You now realize your husband knew he had the infection all along, and did not tell you. It has now affected not only his health but YOURS. Sadly, Mary realizes her children are now immunocompromised, as well. Your doctors tell you all to continue to take the poisonous blue mass mercury pills, which further destroy your families health, both mentally and physically! By the 1860's, Mary realized that one lie had been the cause for so much tragedy. Her angry outbursts upon her husband, which were looked at undeserving, were actually entirely deserving. History was eventually crafted to show that Mary was an awful person, but, if only Abe had been honest, we may have seen a different Mary. How sad Abe would be to know his concealment would be cause for his Wife's eternal damnation. How angry he would have been to know how historian’s who love him, who are cult-like about his life, have trashed his sweet Mollie! I believe I’d rise from my grave to abolish those Lincolnites. Like Momma said, the truth always comes out in the end, no matter how hard anyone tries to hide it or stop it- Lies are just a temporary delay to the inevitable! Respect and listen to your Momma, or your daughter will end up like poor sad Mary!

Mary from Russian Royal Family Nothing to do with Abraham Lincoln All manipulation father of world mafia Gustepa Vatican pope Hilary Cliton, Krishna Murthy this Lincoln so many characters hard to mention all the list This is Iiving Satan now more than century now Still hanging loose no one is capable of arresting him or her This is an international criminal

I think President Lincoln liked to have his photo taken.

🤔

All speculation… no one knows a marriage unless they are in the marriage

Thanks for this well presented program. It can not be overstated how much the death of children irreversibly impacts the "soul" of a parent. Coming from a family who has lost a brother and three first cousins to unexpected and tragic deaths, ages four, thirty-eight, twenty-eight, and fifty respectively, I know all too well the impact that is not well understood nor supported, especially in America, because, frankly, grief freaks people out and our countries' "death rituals" leave a lot to be desired. I know that I'm going off topic, but to anyone who knows a parent whose child died and you're not sure what to do or say, I have a few very easy, but extremely important do's and do nots: DO NOT 1. Ask what you can do because while you're trying to be helpful, you're actually making it harder; now, THEY have to help you, help THEM. 2. Let them cry without trying to make them stop. Instead, offer your hand to hold. 3. Ask them to share a story about their daughter/son. Ask positive, easy questions. Favorite color? What did they enjoy doing, reading, etc. What's one of your favorite memories? ABSOLUTE LY some of the WORST things you can do, but ESPECIALLY SAY: 1. He/she is in a better place. 2. I know how you feel. (YOU DON'T, unless you suffered through the death of your own child!) 3. Give it time. 4. God only gives you as much as you can handle, 🤯. 5. Oh, honey, don't cry; don't be sad. Think of the happy times. 6. Don't ignore their grief. If you ask them how they are doing, please be sincere and LISTEN. Don't try to fix it/them. You CAN'T. But, you can listen, especially if they cry. Listen to them cry and don't try to stop them from crying by any means. Heck, you can even cry with them. Remember that we laugh together. Why is one acceptable and not the other? You will never know the depth of their pain. The grief a parent suffers is different than any other kind of grief derived from the death of a beloved. It's like a wound that has a scab, but that scab never fully heals. Congratulations if you've read this entire comment. It's well meant. Peace be with you...

I’ve always had so much sympathy for Mary Lincoln. How she suffered through all of her losses is way beyond me.

Mary did not want to be a spinster. Although Mary had a chance to marry a widower, she was not overwhelmed with marriage proposals. Lincoln was not depressed over losing Mary because he was the person who called off the engagement. To promote a reconciliation, mutual friends arranged for them to meet in secret. The preparations for the wedding were rushed. Mary's family felt she had married down. After she became First Lady, Mary flaunted her success by offering federal patronage jobs to members of her family. It does reflect well on Lincoln that, in order to maintain peace in his home, that he gave into Mary's request for jobs for her family members. Although Lincoln was a man of simple taste, Mary had delusions of grandeur and took a regal approach to her role as First Lady. Mary wanted to prove she had not made a mistake by marrying a man from a humble background.

🤣😂😅

murder = worse than servitude and servitude is an acceptable means to end servitude. john brown was a horrible man.

william lloyd garrison = bad.... violence = good. that is the moral of this presenter. bravo.

Fascinating piece. John Brown was quite a figure in the pages of history.

I'm pleased to see that the North Country Community College posted this discussion regarding truth in the media; however, there was no mention of Operation Mockingbird which is a government program to manipulate information in the media. This, as I'm sure you know, involves the CIA and allegedly secret societies that seek to destroy our Republican form of government and our Free Enterprise System in favor of a Global New World Order that is based on the Caste System model in India. Nevertheless, I must admit that some of the discussion came close to the ideas in Operation Mockingbird.

The Tepees are Hop Frames, not hay drying frames.

Some facts need brushing up. Photographs, carriage are well documented but ignored.

Good stuff, very informative and quite fascinating. "Learning about Lincoln... having some food!"

Great information.

Resembles a cross between Lincoln and the Bald Eagle, the real all-American action hero that John Wayne, Eastwood and others tried to be.

Wonderful presentation. I'm glad more people are being educated about the true John Brown, not the bastardized version so many people are familiar with. He wasn't a bloodthirsty madman, but a man of true courage, and moral fiber. He did what he did because he knew it was the right thing to do.

I love this video. What's your favourite drink while making Videos. Also, let's build each other up :o
