On the task "Make Republicans Attend the Fireworks Support Rally" you can't send Lincoln.
FYI - Lincoln was the first candidate to run under the newly-formed Republican Party.
Yeah, but by todays standards he'd be a democrat, or at the very least not a republican.
It's fair to say any president from that time period would do a spit take if we told them our annual deficit. I doubt they'd want anything to do with either of them.
Heck, had he known the mess we'd make of things, he might even have adopted those clauses from the Confederate constitution; the one insisting that bills submitted to Congress each pertain to a single subject clearly expressed in their titles, and the one where an exact dollar amount would be allocated in a bill which could be spent. None of this "let's pass it to find out what's in it," thousand-page bill, trillion-dollar slush fund nonsense.
Not everything the Rebs wanted pertained to slavery. :wink:
