Let?s march to Washington.

By the way both lincoln and reagan were hated in their time.

I am interested to know where you get your information about presidents being hated. A very simple search turned up presidential approval ratings going back to Eisenhower's era and shows that Reagan was second in popularity only to Clinton in that time. The only president in the time that this statistic has been tracked to be disapproved of more than the current president Bush was president Nixon.

Read the numbers for yourself here http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/11/0...5327.shtml and see what you think.

As for the popularity of Lincoln in his day it is true that a great number of former slave owners disliked him but the emancipation of slaves was a great triumph of human rights and he was generally hailed in the north for his forward vision. Actual numbers couldn't be tracked back then and the country had just gone through a civil war so it's natural that the people in the south would not like having been defeated in that war. There are still areas of the US that hate the confederates and wear the "stars and bars" with pride.

I find it hard to argue with someone who makes up facts that sound good in the hope of supporting an unsupportable argument.
