“As a nation we began by declaring that ‘all men are created equal.’ We now practically read it ‘all men are created equal, except Negroes.’ When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read ‘all men are created equal, except Negroes and foreigners and Catholics.’ When it comes to this, I shall prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty – to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”
Abraham Lincoln
Zarathustra says:
“I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will for ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.”

He certainly seems to have been willing to tailor his remarks to fit whatever audience he happened to be speaking to at the moment. I guess it was easier to get away with in his day…no instant communication, no national mass media.

Raze the Lincoln Memorial and replace it with a memorial to the great American patriot John Wilks Booth. Remember the winners get to determine who the war criminals are and write History.

booth messed up because he martyred lincoln, “honest abe” would have showed his true colors during peace time and would have been less likely revered (atleast I hope he would have) as an emancipator and depicted as the big govt tyrant he really was.

Booths timing was off by over four years just as many predictions are later proven correct. The longest running prediction that will be proven correct is Malthus prediction that population will out strip food supply.
Lincoln’s martyrdom is a product of the winners “Historians”. “There can never be a contradiction because one of the premise is wrong” – Ayn Rand. The wrong premise is the illusion created by the “Historians” that Lincoln was serving the cause of “righteousness”.
