Barack Obama Sees Abraham Lincoln -- In Himself

"In Lincoln's rise from poverty, his ultimate mastery of language and law, his capacity to overcome personal loss and remain determined in the face of repeated defeat -- in all this, he reminded me not just of my own struggles." --Barack Obama (The Audacity of Hope, pages 146, 147)
