That was my feeling on reading it.
No way Obama wrote that, syntax is not his, cadence
all different.

The only thing that might have been Obama’s was the last
line...

But Lincoln’s words give us confidence that whatever trials avoid us, this nation and the freedom we cherish can, and shall, prevail.

“...whatever trials avoid us” sorry Barak that should
have been “avail us”. Nice try, too verbose I give it a
“c-”.

The POtuS shuns the commemoration ceremony honoring the 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address and then throws us a handwritten letter, attempting to outdo Lincoln.

His presidency is falling apart and he has time to make sure a letter is exactly 271 words long?

It contains an original copy of the Gettysburg Address, written in Lincoln's own hand.

Does that version have "under God" in it?
