This speech by Abraham Lincoln has been proclaimed by some pretty “Heavy Hitter” historians as the best speech ever written and given in the USA.
These last words in the speech give me goosebumps every time I read or hear them spoken..”That we here, highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the Earth”.
This application of words is so critical relative the upcoming election in the state of Alabama in December, 2017. An American citizen, Roy Moore is assumed innocent until proven guilty by a legal jury of his American peers. Nothing else has bearing on these accusations, other then this confirmed truth when proved in the court of law. Every citizen legal voter in the great state of Alabama should and must cast their vote for Judge, Roy Moore on election day, December 12, 2017. Your freedom and future are at stake. “AMEN”
The man was an absolute genius with oratory. His modern-day equivalent would be Winston Churchill. Men who could move souls with their words.
