You can fool some people some times but you cant fool all the people all the time ↗

You cannot be President of the United States if you don't have faith. Remember Lincoln, going to his knees in times of trial in the Civil War and all that stuff. ↗

Lincoln said you cannot be President without spending some item on your knees. I have repeated that and a bunch of Atheists got all over me. Wait a minute. Does that mean that you cannot be President if you are an Atheist? I say yea that does mean that. ↗

The day will come - and it is not far off - when the legacy of Lincoln will finally be fulfilled at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, when a black man or woman will sit in the Oval Office. When that day comes, the most remarkable thing about it will be how naturally it occurs. ↗

Like Lincoln, I would like to believe the ballot is stronger than the bullet. Then again, he said that before he got shot. ↗

If I have to be typecast, I'd like it to be as Abraham Lincoln. ↗
