Abraham Lincoln: ‘Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.' Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth. In his iconic Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln uttered the now-famous quote, “Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.” These words encapsulate the essence of democracy and serve as a reminder of the fundamental principle on which nations are built: the power and authority lie with the citizens. https://www.socratic-method.com/quote-meanings-and-interpretations/abraham-lincoln-government-of-the-people-by-the-people-for-the-people-shall-not-perish-from-the-earth Mass Migration against the wishes of the People is...

Today, I sit down with Tom McMillan and discuss his most recent book: The Year That Made America: From Rebellion to Independence, 1775-1776.This gripping account reveals the precarious path to American independence through a series of pivotal dates that history has nearly forgotten. While July 4th claims the glory, the actual vote for independence came on July 2nd—and even that historic moment almost didn't happen. From January's publication of Common Sense to December's darkest hours of the Revolution, McMillan reconstructs the dramatic months when rebellious colonies transformed into a new nation.Through meticulous research and compelling storytelling, the book reveals:How the pivotal events of May 15, June 7, and July 2 shaped America's destinyWhy Congress's bold January declaration triggered a chain of unstoppable eventsThe behind-the-scenes feud between Adams and Jefferson on their views of government after independence was wonHow the Declaration's influence extended from Lincoln's Gettysburg Address to modern timesThis timely narrative strips away the myths to expose the raw political courage that launched a revolution. From heated Congressional debates to the dangerous aftermath of declaring independence, McMillan delivers a fresh perspective on America's founding that resonates powerfully with today's political challenges.Buy The Book
SEASON 3 EPISODE 115: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: It only took Trump losing a critical election by 10 points in a state he carried last November for even HIM to figure out that Elon Musk is the best electoral friend the Democrats have right now. The White House has leaked that Elon's 130-day exemption as a "Special Government Employee" is up at the end of May and so is his time inadvertently saving democracy from the MAGA cult. We CAN'T LET HIM LEAVE! Also, INDICT ELON! Also also, PROTECT ELON AT ALL COSTS! The reporting suggests Trump intends to keep Musk as an informal advisor and frequent White House visitor and that is great news. If Trump won't keep Musk attached to him sufficiently, we have to do it for him. ELON MUSK'S UNFAVORABILITY AMONG DEMOCRATICS IN WISCONSIN IS 97 PERCENT. Let's take that national! OH BY THE WAY TRUMP JUST TANKED THE WORLD ECONOMY. 54% tariffs on China? 26% on India? Huge on the EU and UK? 10 percent on the people he likes? This is the day the Leopards of Wall Street discover that Trump of the Leopards Eating Faces Party is a cannibal: he eats the faces of other leopards! Also I'll explain how this whole tariff crap mainlines back to Trump's insane fixation with gold and the color gold. MEDIA DISASTER: Bill Maher self-destructs. Stephen A. Smith thinks he's the first person to discover the Trump 3rd Term Scam. MSNBC's attempt to tank is so successful "Morning Joe" is now behind CNN in the demo. B-Block (36:14) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Whoever let the BBC start a piece about the Myanmar Earthquake with the line "On the road to Mandalay." Ex-journalist Matt Taibbi will never testify to the House again. And Richard Carlson, at the center of transphobia, sports, TV news, Fox News, Renee Richards, and even worse things, is dead. C-Block (49:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: With the New York Times reporting Chuck Todd is seeking to buy a podcast or local high school sports news company for two billion dollars, it's time for me to note that we are nearing the six year mark since I finally said "I have had enough of this idiot for one lifetime."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Perhaps some of my readers of this column will remember the days of the one room country school as the birth date of Abraham Lincoln on February 12th approaches. My thoughts go to the old one room country school, where I would often look on the wall and see the pictures of two great presidents: Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, who were both born in February. It was back in the good old days when both birthdays were a holiday. It was also the age when children were "to be seen and not heard," and one did not whisper, as "silence was golden." As we studied the life of Lincoln, he became my hero president, a man of great faith and courage. He was born in a log cabin living on the frontier. The family bravely endured many hardships and poverty. His mother died when he was nine years old. His father remarried and young Abe then had a stepmother, and Abe became a true son of the frontier. His life was filled with many disappointments, failures and losses. His sweetheart died and he was defeated in many elections. He faced many challenges, but was determined as President to do all he could do to save the Union. His famous Gettysburg Address has been memorized by many students. Many quotes from his speeches are still used today. His life and work has touched the lives of many. One cannot help but realize that the tangled failures that often occur in our lives can really serve as a thing of joy and beauty.Warm Thoughts: All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel, mother. Abraham Lincoln. The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. Abraham Lincoln. Live one day at a time!

I've seen countless photos and videos of the Lincoln Memorial, but seeing with my own eyes was magnificent. Many consider Lincoln to be the greatest president of all time, and it's hard to argue otherwise. The details carved into every part of the memorial left me in awe. I felt like I was standing at the feet of greatness. It's easy to see why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would stand at this very spot and deliver his “I Have a Dream” speech 100 years after Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Four score and 7 years is equal to 87 years, and it's exactly that number of steps from the top of the Lincoln Memorial to the nearby reflecting pool. Today I'll reflect on those moments I spent standing at the feet of Lincoln.

It's a week after Election Day and what a fascinating election it was. You can see my initial assessment of the election in my newsletter (link below), but in this podcast I'm going for a bit of a palette cleanser. If you've been feeling overwhelmed or generally weary with all the election coverage, may I recommend the Gettysburg Address? Arguably one of the greatest speeches, if not the greatest, in American history, Abraham Lincoln's brief words memorializing the Gettysburg battlefield present us with enduring lessons on the nature of the American state, and casts an expansive moral vision for the future of the republic. Today on the podcast, I'm joined by Lincoln scholar Dr. Matt Van Hook who is an Assistant Director and Associate Professor in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University. We recorded this podcast before the November 5th election, but it's a timely walkthrough of a timeless work of political thought and prose.

For many, the town of Gettysburg is a travel destination. Gettysburg is built on history and the legacies of those that come before us. Historian Tim Smith with the Adams County Historical Society explained how Gettysburg developed into a commercial entity and how the tourism economy developed over the years. “After the war ended and a lot of these people who lived here had lost their farms and had no real means of livelihood and livelihood. People opened up hotels and, you know, taverns and restaurants to accommodate the number of tourists. And a lot of people started to collect stuff off of the battlefield and sell those items to tourists. So much to bring about or sort of about how people are picking up stuff like artillery shells or bullets or pieces of weapons or uniforms that were laying on their property, on their farms and selling them to tourists who are coming in to try to make some kind of living. And later, of course, it expands into local people becoming tour guides and really leaning into the tourist industry.” For those that have never visited Gettysburg, Smith suggests starting with the Battlefield itself. You can pick up a tour map of the battlefield at a kiosk at the National Park Service Visitor's Center. “You can get for free and see the place where the battle was fought and the spot where Abraham Lincoln gave the Gettysburg Address. And then, of course, you know, the Gettysburg Foundation has a wonderful museum at a national military park visitor center. And of course, we have a nice museum here, Gettysburg, Beyond the Battle Museum, and many of these other attractions and museums around town are really interesting to see.” Smith believes early on, those who lived through the Battle of Gettysburg, that local people there should be some kind of public property where the battle was fought. “In 1863, a couple of months after the battle, it was local people that first took steps to purchase Little round Top and Culp's Hill Cemetery Hill. And then as time went by, roads were put in and more and more land was purchased. The local people formed an organization called the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association. And they were actually able to get grants from the Pennsylvania state legislature. And then they used those funds to purchase more land around the battlefield.” Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this enlightening episode of the "Stuck In My Mind Podcast," host Wize El Jefe is joined by esteemed public speaking coach Peter George for a deep dive into the art and evolution of public speaking. Titled "From Stutter to Stage: Peter George's Public Speaking Journey," the conversation explores both historical and modern facets of effective communication and engagement with an audience. Peter George, a seasoned public speaker with over 30 years of experience, candidly shares his inspiring journey overcoming childhood speech impediments, including a lisp and stutter. These early challenges ignited his quest for mastery in communications, ultimately leading to a transformative career as a public speaking coach. With a focus on helping others harness their unique strengths, Peter reveals his personal evolution and the insights that have shaped his coaching philosophy. The episode delves into the historical trajectory of public speaking—from the grand orations of the past to today's more conversational, concise formats, likened to the influential TED Talks, typically capped at 18 minutes. In contrast to lengthy historical speeches, such as the two-hour oration preceding President Lincoln's renowned three-minute Gettysburg Address, modern techniques prioritize engaging dialogues and audience connection. Wize and Peter discuss how the richness of stories, interactive questions, and the speaker's body language play critical roles in keeping an audience captivated. Central to Peter's approach is the AMPD framework—a strategic guide for speakers that emphasizes Audience engagement, crafting a clear Message, tailoring the Presentation to different groups, and ensuring impactful Delivery. This methodology reflects Peter's belief in focusing on serving the audience and creating transformative experiences. He stresses the importance of empathy and engagement over sheer information dissemination, echoing the episode's underlying narrative about the potency of listening and adapting to audience needs. Throughout the conversation, Peter underscores the significance of storytelling in speeches, emphasizing stories' memorability and power to impart morals and messages effectively. Aligning storytelling with structured presentation elements, his insights illustrate how narratives can bridge the gap between a speaker's objectives and the audience's interests. Peter shares various anecdotes, including memorable lessons from his great grandmother about distinguishing between criticism and constructive critique. He also reflects on his father's influence, a firefighter, and how these experiences informed his values and career choices.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 274 - A Two-Minute Masterpiece: The Gettysburg Address ExplainedThis episode delves briefly into Edward Everett's two hour speech at Gettysburg prior to President Lincoln's two minute address, and breaks down Lincoln's words and concepts in his address.
Send us a textPresident Lincoln stayed true to himself till his assassination leaving the grandest legacy by any leader in not only the 19th century but perhaps all of the modern era. Through his leadership and moral example, he gave a renewed meaning to democracy and social justice for America and the world watched America during their time of challenge, evaluating whether America, the first democracy's experiment in self government would endure. President Lincoln outlines not only this challenge in his Gettysburg Address, but reassures the American people that American democracy by the people and for the people shall not perish from this earth. President Lincoln was not the greatest general in history though he taught himself the rules of war and he certainly was not the greatest statesman though he was a practicing politicians, but he indeed was the greatest humanitarian of the modern era, who through his leadership of the Union and emancipation of slaves, was an impeccable icon of freedom. He played the central and most pivotal role in Americas darkest hour and in doing so made justice triumphant to so many who have been exploited and marginalized. Every generation must give renewed meaning to freedom and justice and in doing so President Lincoln gave America the room to breathe again opening the door to a whole new generation of activists and leaders. Thats why he mattered.

From earliest times, God commanded His people to see their national home through His holy eyes. In other words, countries around the world are to follow the Lord. Of course, many don't. Jeremiah 30:22 says, “So you will be my people, and I will be your God.” Many great civilizations have risen, but few last beyond a couple hundred years. Although history is debated, the foundations of America see a people who wanted to live holy unto the Lord. Modern America is still an ongoing experiment, but our Pledge of Allegiance, adopted in 1942, used the phrase “Under God.” Lincoln used it for the first time during his Gettysburg Address, when he told the people that from that point on, we would be one people—united under the Living God. This is something to celebrate, and we should! Our nation is always stretching to do better, and fulfill an ideal that is more than just some slogan. It's our calling to be this way…under God. Let's pray. Lord, thank you that Christ is proclaimed in freedom in our nation! Help us continue this sacred calling. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

In January of 1869, Frederick Douglass came to Gettysburg. He faced death threats, but he delivered his own "Gettysburg Address" nonetheless. We don't know exactly what he said, but historians are able to glean what he most likely said based on speeches he gave elsewhere during his speaking tour of that time. LBG Kevin Bryant joins us once again to talk about Frederick Douglass at Gettysburg.
