President Barack Obama, standing with First Lady Michelle Obama, receives a copy of the Gettysburg Address from an actor portraying former US President Abraham Lincoln during the grand reopening celebration of Ford’s Theatre in Washington, DC, on Wednesday night (February 11).

The theatre, site of Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, is being unveiled after an 18-month, $25 million renovation and timed to coincide with the bicentennial of the former US president’s birth.

I’m watching CNN and they are doing a special from Lincoln to Obama. I guess I didn’t realize the role that Frederick Douglass played as well also the reasoning behind the freeing of the slaves.

Michelle looks great in the dress, but the dress itself is a little too “froo froo” for me. A more A-line look would have been far more flattering

Yes, our President is Black

We MUST continue to pray for the President as we did whenhe was campaigning, i ask that the men and women of God that come this blog to do so..We MUST continue to plead the blood of Jesus over him, his wife and, children, ove their minds will and emotions over each of their past, present. and futures.
we must in unisom wherever we are each day boldy declare that “NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST HIM (AND GODS PLAN FOR HIS LIFE AND THIS COUNTRY) SHALL PROSPER, ANY AND EVERY TONGUE WHICH RISES AGAINST HIM IN JUDGEMENT SHALL BE SHOWN TO BE IN THE WRONG!!!!! I DECLARE THIS ALL IN THE WONDERFUL AND MATCH LESS NAME OF JESUS. AMEN…..and to those who agree and will stand with me the scriptures say that we can a decree a thing and it shall be established and the prayers of the righteous availeth much.

Thank you God bless each and everyone of you.

Men of God PRAY!!!!! Women of God PRAY!!!! GODS’ people PRAY!!!!!

i got to speak the ... truth

our prez told the crowd down in florida that w/ this stimulus pkg and if it don’t work out ,then the people have the right to choose another president next time around. all while the republican machine is gearing him or trying to gear him for failure. its evident that in my lifetime that no good ol boy from the grand ol party EVER stood in the corner of any blackman less lone would join him in a vote that would breath life back in this failing ecomony. i’ve been through 2 lifecycles 0-20, 20-40, and on my third 40-to soon to be 55. so thats about 3 cycles. and all i’ve seen the republicans do in this time is take-take-take. and democrats squander-squander-squander. while you sleep republicans are targeting the elections of 2010 them senate seats that will make your first term your only one . this is how they roll. iam from iowa and have yet to see chuck grassley from the grand ol party set foot in a black neigborhood in all his years in office now these folks are calling for party change, ” a skunk can-not change his stripe”. its a fact. you ever heard of a democrat affilated w/ assasinations or starting a war? you think it was a dem– who killed jfk,mlk,rfk,malcolm x, and on and on. or have talk radio shows that after people listen to them go out and shoot up churches,synagouges, womens health clinics– saying the reason why they did it ; quote ‘i hate liberals. yep the good ol boys and good ol gals of the stars and the bars have shown their true colors after 8 yrs of the country and the needs of the people WENT TOTALLY IGNORED. the grand ol party once again showed the people where it was coming from and thats, give us tax cuts and breaks again after all these years later. they don’t care about education but i bet their kids are getting the best education there is to offer and health care etc and etc….. it was this grand ol party that filabustered civil rights legistration in the 60’s so if they had their way you’d still be on his plantation. and i won’t bite my tongue. them ol boys and their brotherhood secert clubs and org. make contacts and network, exclusively amongst themselves. and to hell w/ the rest of you free or think you free slaves. but we will pay you to entertain us and watch and laugh as you negro’s self destruct. the republicans have sent the word to the 3 or two senators who voted for the stimulus pkg. that they are all but blackballed. now black folks that are ready to jump on their bandwagon. like bishop tutu stated you exsist on the illusion of equality. just keep liv’n all yaw i’am doing alright black folk. history will never die. “happy valinetines day” to all the women of the world.

The Obamas are such a well rounded,bright and relatively young couple and very effective role models.The whole world is looking to a black man,President Barack Obama,for leadership,right now. Barack and Michelle`s positive example,of what a black person can do and achieve,should motivate and inspire black people everywhere,to not procrastinate and waste your life or take a back seat to anyone,but go out in this world and successfully reach your potential.

I was watching Good Morning America and one of the Nets cheerleaders is related to ol’ President Lincoln. I think she’s like the 13th generation or something of the sort.

@20 You clearly do not read the Bible with comprehension. God is not supporting Barack Obama and never will and you would know that if you read the Bible with comprehension.

Hey, guys, take a look at this man`s photo at a celebrity&millionaire romance site http://www.millionairelov...35/5521535-2746888.jpgWow, he looks like Obama very much! His username is: forloveman34 . I can`t image why he looks so similar with Obama, i am sure someone will mistake him as Obama when he goes out. lol…

@Say What

Thank the Most High for your comment, lmao. I get a kick out of these so-called “Jesus (Cesare Borgia) freaks” that try to make Obama a man of the Lord and associate America with righteousness in any way, shape, or form. As an aside, I wonder why they continue to attempt to form a congruency between Obama and Lincoln? Is it because they’re both presented as presidents that stood up for blacks when neither one of them have or did? Is it because they are communicating to the public and Obama that he will get assassinated if he disobeys the international bankers like Lincoln did? All of this is so contrived that it is written like a bad movie or play.

Michelle Obama’s fashion sense is soooo overrated.
