Twisting History Poem

Presidential Interview-Abraham Lincoln

"What color are your eyes?"
-Interviewer

"I've been telling abolitionists time and time again, take freedom one tiny step at a time. If we liberate every slave at once, I'll have to impose martial law before rebellion seizes the country." -Abe

"In your opinion, who is the most admirable African-American abolitionist of our time?" -Interviewer

"The United States economy is thriving because of our 'very' motivated workforce and 'brilliant' leaders. We should do everything possible to keep this success profitable."
-Abe

"Sometimes people have objected to your plans concerning slave liberation, do you have a rebuttal for these comments?"
-Interviewer

"In 'my' Kentucky, our opinions were strong and fortified, not independent and contradictory. All over the country nowadays, people express opinions that totally clash with my own. How am I supposed to lead a country with struggles to overcome?"
-Abe

"Is it true that you have sustained a law career for twenty-five years?"
-Interviewer

"Lincoln and associates will be more that happy to offer our 'exclusive' services at a 'reasonable' price."
-Abe
