man by inciting class hatred. You cannot build character and courage
by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help
people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do
for themselves." Abraham Lincoln

For some reason, I got a great email today. Just thought I'd share it.


If you read the writings of Dr Henry Gates you will see he calls
Lincoln a racist republican so why does any of this surprise you.


And the funny part, is the Republican party was started as an anti slavery
party.
