What would Lincoln say about the present day elections for President for 2016?

[Gencor]

One writer had stated that Trump is working out of the Andrew Jackson playbook. Do you agree?

It does seem that way, however, I just wonder if Trump is smart enough to know that his campaign style is much like Andrew Jackson? I also wonder if he knows who Andrew Jackson is. They are now comparing him to George Wallace, the ex-Governor of Alabama during the 60's. He does seem very similar. I am still trying to get past his comments about not knowing who David Duke is.

What a great way to put it! How true. Except, contrary to standard practice in the 1830s he hasn't begun getting voters drunk and dragging them to the polls, or hiring thugs to beat up anyone who tries to vote against him---yet.

Wouldn't put it past him!

Well, not yet, anyway. You can google and read about his ties to organized crime and the mob, relative to the unions and the gambling casino's. I might not put it past him, especially when you see poor Chris Christie standing behind him and supporting him. You just have to wonder why?????
