Why Abraham Lincoln Was The Best President

Abraham Lincoln was the best president because helped end slavery, he has one of the best speeches known in history to this day, and because he is very influential.

Abraham Lincoln was the best president because he helped end slavery Just one month after writing this letter Lincoln issued his first Emancipation Proclamation which announced that at the beginning of 1863, he would use his war powers to free all slaves in states still in rebellion. As it says on wikipedia "With the emacipation Proclamation help free millions of slaves in the united states". Even though it didnt fully free slaves it helped alot and gave slaves alot of hope. And thats my first reason on why Abraham Lincoln is the best president that we ever had in the

united states.
My second reason is because Abraham Lincoln has one of the most memorable speeches in history called the Gettysburg Address. The speech emphasized the sacrificial nature of the Union deaths for Lincoln noted that the “brave men” who struggled there had already consecrated the ground “far above our poor power to add or detract.” A few months before, he had taken note of black sacrifice in other battles when, in a letter to critics of his emancipation policy, he had observed, “You say you will not fight to free negroes. Some of them seem willing to fight for you.” And this is my second reason on why Abraham Lincoln is the greatest president in the United States.

My third reason on why Abraham Lincoln is one of the greatest presidents of all time is because is has a great influence on people. "Abraham Lincoln, a self-taught lawyer, legislator and vocal opponent of slavery, was elected 16th president of the United States." And to me Abraham was mulit talented and i feel like he infuenced the people of the United stated to do better and work harder to get what they want and to achieve their goals.

Abraham Lincoln is the best president of the united states because he has one of the best speeches in history, he helped free slaves, and because he is very influential to people.
