Obama has frequently used references of Abraham Lincoln. He traveled Lincoln's route to Washington for inaugural. He is using the Lincoln Bible. The media even mentioned Obama drank from a glass once owned by Lincoln.
 
he probably admires him, but i sure hope he doesnt excpect his term(s) to go as Lincoln's, because know we look at Lincoln as an amazing pres. but he was almost looked upon as a villian during his terms.
my history teachers this morning was talking about how Bush will most likely become as Lincoln, hated during his terms, but in almost 100 years he will be looked upon as a great president.

/rant --sorry.
 
It's kind of ironic actually... since Lincoln was a racist that pandered to the North...
 
No. I frequently use references to Michael Jordan...it doesn't mean I think I am a basketball star.
 
No, he is a Lincoln scholar. He admires what Lincoln did and how he did it. He is his own man, as we are all about to find out very shortly. He hopes someday to come within even a small scope of what Lincoln accomplished. I think that's admirable. Would you rather he admire Hitler?
 
Better than Bush comparing his presidency to Benjamin Franklin's. Which President was he again?
 
He admires Lincoln. I'm sure he hopes to be like Lincoln.

Enjoy your bitterness. It must be exhausting!
