Barack Obama
During this month the whole focus is on the new President Barack Obama. The people compare Obama to the famous Civil War president Abraham Lincoln. I think that people are wrong for saying this because he hasn't done anything yet. Just because he was elected into president when a war was going on doesn't make him like Lincoln. A lot of president were elected when a war was going on, and anyways the war is going to end in like 2011. So i don't know how u compare him to lincoln because lincoln was in a Civil War. So you people are wrong

Jeff...I think you are right...just because Obama is President during a war doesn't make him like Lincoln. However, I think the reason people compare him to Lincoln is #1 Obama is also from Illinois #2 Obama is opening the eyes of the nation to a revolution in the area of racial equality as the first African-American President, just as Lincoln led this country to abolish slavery. At least that's why I think he's like Lincoln.
