Richard Norton Smith Zitate

Presidents in wartime, embattled presidents, unpopular presidents, they all look to Lincoln. He's their patron saint because no president was more embattled or more unpopular than Lincoln was during his presidency. We think he was born on Mount Rushmore. Not so.

Präsidenten in Kriegszeiten, umkämpfte Präsidenten, unpopuläre Präsidenten, alle schauen nach Lincoln. Er ist ihr Schutzpatron, denn kein Präsident war umstrittener oder unpopulärer als Lincoln während seiner Präsidentschaft. Wir glauben, er wurde am Mount Rushmore geboren. Nicht so.
