Abraham+Lincolnkl

Many people think of Lincoln as the best American president. He was the 16th president of the United States. He served as the president from 1861 to the year 1865. Lincoln was scared that he would lose the election to McClellan. One of the reasons he won the election was because he was able to handle slavery so well. It was all of north who voted for him, not one southern slavery state voted for him. In 1863 he accepted to have blacks in the army. The Democrats and Republicans differed greatly with the race issue. The untied states changed there view on racism all because of Lincoln. Lincoln later on went to watch the performance of our American cousin in washington. He was then killed by John Wilkes Booth.
