Extra Credit

In my opinion Lincoln & Obama to me are very alike. They both have views similar to equal rights and are willing to state them. Obama has came out and openly talked about the civil rights movement of the 1950's - 1960's. To contrast their two speeches I would have to say that lincoln's speech about the Dred Scott case was a big turning point. Lincoln used to the Constitution as his evidence to back up his claims and interpret our founding fathers. Obama also a lawyer for the Harvard law review used to the Constitution as his evidence too. i belive if Lincoln could win through all the convestries going on the Obama has a chance .
