We think that our country is divided today, let's remember that in 1860 after one of the most bitter campaigns, the country had ever experienced, Abraham Lincoln was elected President of the United States. He was so disliked by certain factions in our country that he had to sneak into Washington D.C. at night, for his own safety, just before his inauguration. Of course, the division of the country eventually led to one of the bloodiest conflicts in the history of mankind. So during this Presidents' Day celebration let's remember the sacrifice that this man and our country made in order to ensure our union.
