The president hailed, celebrated, and admired by so many as the one who saved the union of the United States of America. I have many reasons to be grateful for Abraham Lincoln.
I am grateful that he filled his cabinet with people who disagreed with him. Lincoln's "team of rivals," in my opinion, sets a wonderful example and precedent for this country.
I am grateful that he took executive initiative in measures such as the Emancipation Proclamation.
I am grateful for the Gettysburg Address.
I am grateful for the profound, inspiring experience I had when I visited Ford's Theatre myself, as well as the museum across the street dedicated to Lincoln's life and legacy.
What would this country be like without our 16th president? I am grateful for Abraham Lincoln.
