I respect him, because he realized the emancipation of slaves was

necessary.

(Waka, I am not sure what thought you had about "public democracy.")

Waka, I agree with you that Lincoln was a great president of the U.S.

We have not had any great presidents lately. We have had some famous

ones, though! Lincoln realized that the country would go to war over

the freeing of slaves. He freed them anyway. I am told he spent many

sleepless nights, worrying whether the country would survive.

 

Who is the greatest Emperor of Japan? The only name that most Americans

know is that of Emperor Hirihito. Japan has had a long, distinguished

history as a country. It may be hard to pick one name!

 

Sincerely,
