Also, if you search "American inventors" all of the images are of African-Americans (except for one of Edison). I guess this is diversity?
Not an easy call.
Abe was a republican when he was alive.
But ever since then he has always voted democrat.
I think all this diversity stuff is merely a reflection of insecurity based on envy. Instead of saying “that’s not fair” a logical person would say “what did that successful person do that I can emulate to improve my condition?”
Blacks are the best inventors. Just look how awesome and forward every African country is...
He HAD TO BE a Republican. Had he been a ‘Rat he’d have been pro-slavery, and there’d have been no war....and Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would still be picking cotton.
Lincoln did run on the National Union Party ticket in 1864. The Republicans renamed themselves for that election. So technically, they’re correct, but it is a poke in the eye to pick that one over the other.
As an experiment imageGoogle “American nventors”:
while they will show Benjamin Franklin, the rest looks like the cast from Soul Train; it’s a hundred percent blacks.
the resulting picture compendium would almost make you surprised that any white person other than Ben Franklin had invented anything ever.
It’s not just diverse, no.
it’s baroque, it’s unintentional slapstick, patently ridiculous.
It’s not going to be easy but I am going to ween off google products. They are out of control.
It was mostly a political move in order to garner support from both Democrats and Republicans. There were many Republicans that wanted to drop him from the ticket and running under this heading allowed him to build bridges and unite a broken country.
He was, however, still a Republican at this time.
The insane liberals grasp at anything to re-write history.
I mentioned this before.
Very few people know that Abe Lincoln was a Break Dancer
and a avid TV watcher,too.
One of his favorite show was Dukes of Hazzard
Oh, and he was gay.
I heard that the creators of Google, and Google is a recent invention itself, downloaded the entire internet and proceeded to create their search engine It can be done again, i have also read that some rich white republicans are attempting to go outside this box and recreate some better stuff. I wish i had the resources.
He also hunted vampires... :-)
LOL!
That engineer was right.
The new spelling of “Google” is “Goolag”.
Try bing. The pictures they use are beautiful
Well he freed the slaves so how could he possibly be a Republican? We know he wasn’t a Republican from our google history lessons - any questions?
Screw goolag
It is the start of a Wikipedia article. If you go to that you will find it there. Lincoln belonged to the Whig’s before becoming a Republican
"But ever since then he has always voted democrat."
LOL!....The Real Lincoln: A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War, by Thomas J. Dilorenzo. ....fascinating read and impeccable research.
