RE: Show us your Lincoln collectables!
I think it's ironic to call Kennedy an emancipator given that he was very reluctant to support the civil rights movement in the south, although he did make it so James Meredith could enroll at the University of Mississippi. I met Meredith when I was in college, and he talked about how President Kennedy fought for him to be able to go to school, although Kennedy was, at best, a reluctant warrior.
