Which is a matter of opinion. Even if you were able to convince the entire American Historical Association that this was a correct interpretation, it still is nothing more than opinion.

Plus, while I'm no lawyer, to accuse someone of trying to deceive the public could be considered, at least in my mind, as libelous or slanderous.

Nonsense. When you can show me how many of those 300,000,000 even know who won the prize this year then I'll concede your point.

That's the first thing you've said that I agree with.

One out of three is a good percentage in baseball. But when it comes to President Abraham Lincoln, I want to hear and read the truth 100 percent of the time.

What percentage of the time would you prefer to hear and read the truth about President Abraham Lincoln?
