I was a Clinical Supervisor for a 23 year old student attending Wayne State University. I mentioned A. Lincoln to her one day. She gave me a puzzled look and asked: "You mean that guy on the penny?" That is all she knew about Lincoln. Our work is cut out for us!

Which reminds me of an outstanding speech I heard by Harold Holzer in Feb. 2010 at the annual banquet of the Abraham Lincoln Association. He spoke on "Why Lincoln Matters." I know he was giving the speech at various places for different events. Anyone else have the opportunity to hear it? I'm not sure if it's available to purchase. The speech served to reinforce to us all that Lincoln is still relevant today. Obviously, it is a much needed message.
