  5. Ok........My favorite president is Abraham Lincoln. He truely lit a spark in my head of how to treat people of other races. To always treat them exactly the same because we all were created equal and were meant to be the same, no matter if our skin is light or dark. Lincoln helped to set free all the slaves, and with a little help from the later Martin Luther King Jr, acomplished his dreams. Even if he wasn't alive to see it.

  11. I don't mean to sound unorginal but my my favorite president is Abraham Lincoln because he helped free the slaves. He was the man who gave african americans somewhat equal rights to the whites. But he (and with the help of Martin Luther King Jr, later on in history) gave me the opportunity to have great friends such as Micheal, Amara, Gabby, Tirque,and Lorranger.

  15. I would have to say Barack Obama. He is the first African American president and might be the only one for a long time. He "got rid of" Osama Bin Laden. He also believes in everyone being equal no matter their skin color, gender, or marriage. To me, he still currently doing the job right.

    (nobody said Herbert Hoover, right?)
