Nothing specific and everything in general. I am a huge Lincoln fan, not at all a fan of the assassination thoughts, theories and story lines though. I think he was one of our greatest presidents, after Washington and before Jefferson. His writings/speeches intrigue me and his affinity for storytelling is also interesting. IMO, his being so "home-grown" and yet stalwart and resolute in such a turbulent and tragic time is even more remarkable. He did not have the travel, education, and polish of Washington, Jefferson or Madison but he was magnetic and just as impressive IMO.

Is that sufficient reason?

Thanks, SandiS. (I wasn't asking for reasoning, just curious. FYI I was asked the same when joining as many were as this is interesting and what the forum is about.)
