Lincoln's election tore this country apart.

Obama wants to be just like Lincoln.

"Obama wants to be just like Lincoln."

Yes. Especially the part about suspending Habeas Corpus, imposing martial law - stuff like that.

Coming soon. You betcha.

The country was well on its way to tearing itself in two before Lincoln was elected. In fact, it had been in process at birth. Appeasement at that birth allowed the formation of the union but only served to delay the inevitable.

You cannot create a country based on freedom when millions live in slavery. Even the founders (some who owned slaves themselves) knew the hypocrisy of that.
