Lincoln's Birthday


Great speech with continual relevance. Note he was a bit cute -- the Republican platform was a threat to the South/slavery -- he wasn't some professor giving a nuanced take here. But, the in depth discussion in a day when the Founding were still in direct memory is still powerful and raises themes that still arise. A passionate fact-based attack.
