There have been 28 presidents since Lincoln, and 27 of them did not commemorate the anniversaries of the Gettysburg Address – and this includes Reagan, who did nothing on the 125th anniversary, and never visited Gettysburg as president. (The exception was William Howard Taft.) Obama, in other words, is doing largely what nearly all of his predecessors have done without controversy.

I'm sure there is technology that would blow my friggin mind but some devise that allows someone to travel to mars in the manner of which Mr. Basiago speaks of seems a little far fetched. Throw in that Obama was in some of his time traveler classes is waaaay out there. I'm not knocking your belief because god knows I'm a believer in some weird stuff. If its ever proven that he is what he claims then you will be the first one that I will tell "you were right."

Ahh, the truth is so much simpler....

Abraham Lincoln was a successful president and historical figure, and Obama is known to look to him for ideas as well as quotes to use in his own speeches. These two great men, Obama and Lincoln are similar in many ways, may it be their speaking abilities, their situations, or their campaign stratagies. If all goes well, the comparisons will continue when Obama does an amazing job at dealing with our current situation.
Lincoln and Obama
As he did throughout his campaign, Mr. Obama evoked imagery ofAbraham Lincoln, in word and deed, as he took an abridged version of Lincoln’s journey by rail to the capital before his own inaugural festivities in 1861. The trip offered Mr. Obama one more opportunity to savor his victory before he inherits the challenges that await him.

He is't American.
Prove he isn't American. None of the birthers have been able to prove that he isn't American.
He uses the Constitution as toilet paper.

Time travelers were sent back in time during the Civil War too change the future & prevent the first black president from being harmed at Gettysburg
