President Abraham Lincoln and Unique Aspects of the U.S. Civil War

lincoln civil war7 pm, Community Room 
Our nation’s 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, saw nothing wrong with offering a job for his vote. This man never went to college, was the first and only president granted a patent and of his four children only one lived to adulthood. Lincoln was neither senator nor governor. He was so unimpressive that six out of ten voters voted against him in 1860? Yet because of him, our nation is indivisible!

In the second part of the presentation, we will look at the top ten similarities between Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis as well as the top ten differences between the Confederate and U.S. Constitution. Presented by Dr. Greg Ferro, a retired high school teacher, who received his doctorate from Penn State. He currently is a Chatauqua course teacher. Program is co-sponsored by AAUW.
