You see, some of us who have studied US History believe that Honest Abe acted as a dictator here. The fact that some see this as a "fatuous question" and decline to give an answer most likely reflects that fact that they revere Abraham Lincoln but cannot quickly formulate distinctions between him and Qaddafi whom they have been taught to hate.

One led a monarchy and exercised absolute rule to stop rebellion through deadly force.
The other was elected president of a republic, and although did not have the authority, exercised absolute rule to stop secession through deadly force.
Both killed their own people to retain power...one has in the tens of hundreds, and the other in the hundreds of thousands.
One will be either killed or exiled.
The other had a massive building built in his honor.

Overreaching extrapolations are funny in a pathetic kind of way.

Or it reflects the fact that most people have better things to do than answer questions as stupid as this one is?
