What do you think the current circumstances of the world would be like if Abraham Lincoln was ruling America?

Answer 1

Lincoln was trying to save the union, at all costs, because he knew that the money changers wanted us split apart, in order to further their own agenda that much more easily! *sm*

Answer 2

Lincoln was a wise, introspective, eloquent man. Something George Bush does not appear to be. But like George Bush, Lincoln was also a politician. The politician in him made him label a war to end slavery as a war to preserve the union. Guess what. He did both.

Perhaps Lincoln would have gone to war against Iraq, seeing the greater good of ridding the world of a fascist dictator over the risk of lying to the American people and getting us into a quagmire. But I doubt it. A wise, introspective, eloquent man picks his battles carefully, carefully executes them, learns from his mistakes, and doesn't mind discussing them.

Answer 3

Lincoln was an imperialist thug. He would be Bush's biggest fan.

He didn't care about slavery - he offered to keep slavery legal in the south forever if the south agreed not to secede. The south refused, of course, because slavery wasn't the main issue - Independence was the issue. Lincoln only used slavery as a propaganda tool after the war was underway.

Answer 4

All the anti-war folks would be in prison camps. Remember that Lincoln killed Habeaus Corpus during the war.

Answer 5

Lot's of issues ould be addressed, but lincoln hated to loose battles so Iraq would have to be won over before troop withdraw.

Answer 6

We wouldn't be at war with Iraq, despite what conservatives might say--Lincoln tried to avoid war at all costs.

Answer 7

Well, He's not obsessed with oil and weapons of mass destruction which don't exist so I say things we be A LOT different.

Answer 8

Would he still be married to the mentally ill wife?

Answer 9

We certainly wouldn't be involved in Iraq.

Answer 10

And you all think the Patriot Act is tough??
