What are we to make of, "My kind of President", that Mr. Lincoln?
If ever there was a portrait of conviction in the face of doubt, it is Mr. Lincoln, but some of AS's view of Lincoln might need to be re-constructed. Perhaps he might pick up Gore Vidal on Lincoln.
Afterall, it was Lincoln who suspended habeus corpus the first time around and threatened the judiciary, as best I recall, among many other things that could look quite imperial.
