There have been many inaugural addresses and Lincoln's stand among the very best. I just finished presenting a talk on the 1864 Presidential Election and I again had cause to read and include one of my favorite portions of each of his (readers on this discussion group will certainly recognize the last paragraph of the 2nd inaugural address): Mr. Lincoln's and Mr. Kennedy's inaugural addresses have certainly stood the test of time. Could it be that we remember them because they called on the American public to do what is right and just in order to assist our country? |
