Very true.
Several Confederates who knew the depths of Lincoln's goodness were said to have wept when they heard of his death. They knew that he was irreplacable.
It's incredible that extremists and fools continue to attack Lincoln. Without him, the American flag would have been ripped asunder or defiled by the evil of slavery.
How can anyone criticize the man who saved our flag from such a fate?

One of the first people to greet Abraham Lincoln in Richmond was a white girl who gave him a bouquet of roses and said: "Thank you for freeing the slaves."
