there was a lawyer from Illinois who had served only briefly in our national legislature.
He had served before that in the state legislature. He had no foreign policy experience. His military experience was limited to three months in the militia. But the people believed in him. And he turned out ok. His name was Abraham Lincoln.
I thought this was an interesting comparison, though I'm not a big Lincoln fan. Just interested in what you think?
that's a good point. I'm not a Lincoln fan either, but that is a good comparison
