Abraham Lincoln is one of the most loved and celebrated of American Presidents. His legend lives on and he is immortalised in a huge statue in Washington D.C. but why all the fuss for a noble man from the 19th century? Lincoln as a young man was known for his great strength and his flair for storytelling and above all things his strength of character. In his small country town he won respect with his sincerity and capability, and he was renowned for being able to hold his own in the roughest of societies. He decided he wanted to try his luck in politics, and after obtaining a degree in law he became a Whig. He served one term in congress and attacked the countries reasoning's behind the Mexican War and was dubbed unpatriotic. Lincoln opposed slavery his whole life, and related it to the democratic ideals in the Declaration of Independence, which he always lived strongly by. He became a Republican and his opposition of slavery won him high praise. He regarded slavery as an injustice and an evil, and opposed any extension of the process. During his term as President, his beliefs and values stood tall. He was faced with the worst time in American history, the Civil War, and was determined to preserve the union at all costs, and promised that he would not initiate the use of force. He attacked the problems of the war with vigor and skill. He was beset by the difficulties of war and by opposition from men on his own side. He continued his course sometimes alone with wisdom and patience. Throughout the war, his main aims were restoration and preservation of the union. In his most famous speech, The Gettysburg address, he made clear how war was affecting him. When he was re-elected, when the war was drawing to a close, his personal view was one of forgiveness "with malice towards none, with charity for all"
