I have never understood why the Honorable Abraham Lincoln is considered a great President.
Someone else with better skills could have found a way to coax the South back into the Union without a bloody and horrific four-year war that left hundreds of thousands dead or maimed and the South physically decimated.
The consequences of that war are still reverberating in our country, for example, in the mean streets of Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, etc.
