I rate him with a 5. First off all he created the emancipation proclamation, which ended slavery for the greater good. Without that, what would our lives today be like, it wouldnt only affect us americans, it would affect africa because we use them as slaves. It would also affect the monopoly of our trade with all countries. Zippax, you dont know nothing, hair got nothin to do with it. Oh and dont forget that he did lead our country back into one union. He enlisted the help of some of the greatest generals ever. Gosh, not influencial. Wow, you guys need to brush up on your history. He showed what you can achieve if you work hard at it and you truly believe.
