THE SECOND TERM BURDENED A STRONG MAN: 8/8: A Man of Iron: The Turbulent Life and Improbable Presidency o1 Grover Cleveland Hardcover – by  Troy Senik  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Man-Iron-Turbulent-Improbable-Presidency/dp/1982140747?ref_=ast_author_dp#customerReviews Grover Cleveland's political career—a dizzying journey that saw him rise from obscure lawyer to president of the United States in just three years—was marked by contradictions. A politician of uncharacteristic honesty and principle, he was nevertheless dogged by secrets from his personal life. A believer in limited government, he pushed presidential power to its limits to combat a crippling depression, suppress labor unrest, and resist the forces of American imperialism. A headstrong executive who alienated Congress, political bosses, and even his own party, his stubbornness nevertheless became the key to his political appeal. The most successful Democratic politician of his era, he came to be remembered most fondly by Republicans. 1893 Second Inaugural

I can hardly read this without getting emotional.  Lincoln believed God was stretching out America's affliction because we were a nation in sin.  Our punishment was a protracted Civil War that took 700,000 lives.  Or to borrow from the great British song, The Streets of LondonHow can you tell me you're lonelyAnd that for you, the sun don't shineLet me take you by the hand And lead you through the streets of LondonI'll show you somethingThat'll change your mind. This is a reposting.  Because we may need to think of these things.

White Ash Flies presents Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address, read by Colin Mahoney.

Who's the most influential figure in American political history? Washington? Lincoln? Martin Luther King? The answer, for any student of American history, should be clear: it's Moses. But how does this influence pan out? And how do Moses, and other Biblical figures, help us tell our own stories…even today? To unpack all of this, Ari spoke with bestselling author and New York Times columnist Bruce Feiler, author of “America's Prophet: Moses and the American Story”. They talked about the Age of Exploration; Moses as lawgiver vs. Moses as liberator; Lincoln's Second Inaugural; the Bible as text vs. the Bible as map; why Abraham's story comes before Moses'; how to improve July 4th; and much more!

Lincoln in his Second Inaugural pointed out that even amidst the horror of civil war, Americans of both sides still "read the same Bible and prayed to the same God." Today, Americans can no longer agree on such basic questions as what a woman is; the traditional political distinctions of "left" and "right" no longer fully explain our reality. Matthew explains how Republicans can leverage the tools they already possess to help their constituents live a more human way of life and further outlines steps each individual can take to protect themselves and their families from institutional corruption.    Show Notes:   https://guide.newfounding.com/   Socialist Investment Advisors - American Mind https://americanmind.org/salvo/socialist-investment-advisors/   Principal Investments  https://www.principalinv.com/   RETURN https://return.life/   The College President Who Won't Raise Tuition - The Atlantic  https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/04/mitch-daniels-purdue/606772/

His thoughts on these landmarks can be traced through three speeches: the Lyceum Address, the Gettysburg Address, and the Second Inaugural. The latter two are well known, enshrined forever on the walls of the Lincoln Memorial. The first is much less familiar to most, written a quarter-century before his presidency, when he was a 28-year-old Illinois state legislator.

In this episode we turn to the great emancipator—not that he started out with that intention. From the covenant between the States in one Union to the painful perception of necessary bloodshed for the North as well as the South on account of its collusion, Lincoln out-Jeffersoned Jefferson, invoking the equality of all human beings according to the Declaration over against the evasion of the slavery issue in the Constitution. And yet, young Lincoln has about as much regard for orthodox Christianity as Jefferson did. What was that brought about such different results in conscience and action? What did Lincoln perceive of God that others could not, as he expressed so powerfully in the Second Inaugural? Notes: 1. Lincoln, Speeches and Writings (Library of America). See in particular: 1860 Speech at the Cooper Institute, 1861 First Inaugural, 1862 Annual Message to Congress, 1862 Emancipation Proclamation, 1863 Proclamation Appointing a National Fast Day, 1863 Gettysburg Address, 1865 Second Inaugural 2.

“A New Birth of Freedom”: Lincoln's Oratory and the Civil War The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series Welcome to The Not Old Better Show on radio and podcast.  I'm Paul Vogelzang and as part of our Smithsonian Associates interview series, we have a wonderful show today. Our guest today is Smithsonian Associate and author and professor of history Christopher Hamner.  Dr. Christopher Hamner teaches and writes about U.S. History: War and American society, the individual experience of combat, technological change and warfare.  The title of Dr. Hamner's upcoming presentation at Smithsonian Associates is “A New Birth of Freedom”: Lincoln's Oratory and the Civil War.  More details are available on our website, but we have Dr. Christopher Hamner today. More than 150 years after his death, our 16th president maintains his reputation as one of the most gifted orators to hold the nation's highest office. Abraham Lincoln used his facility with language to help guide the country through the Civil War—the most destructive in its history—and through the massive social and political disruption that accompanied four years of fighting. Christopher Hamner, professor of history at George Mason University, focuses on how three of Lincoln's best-known speeches—his First Inaugural (1861), his Gettysburg Address (1863), and his Second Inaugural (1865)—helped to move a war-weary citizenry toward a radical new understanding of the country's own values and of the meaning of the war and of emancipation.

This podcast was recorded on February 12, 2022, Abe Lincoln's birthday. Why do we all love Lincoln so much? What made him our number 1 president? Through the lens of his Second Inaugural speech, we explore what made Lincoln so... fricking... awesome. We see two characteristics that are rarely possessed in one person: absolute, stone cold toughness in battle, coupled with total forgiveness after the battle was over. He was a nice guy, tough guy. In this speech given just weeks before he died, he essentially gave an ultimatum to the South: Option 1 - Keep fighting, and you will be crushed. All chips in. All in. No compromise on the question of slavery. You're going down. In his beautiful words: "Yet, if God wills that it continue, until all the wealth piled by the bond-man's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash, shall be paid by another drawn with the sword." Get chills reading that with Lincoln pressaging Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction, going all Old Testament on the South. Option 2 - Lay down your arms. Recognize federal sovereignty. Accept that slavery will be abolished. And you will be forgiven, allowed to return home, and welcomed back. "With malice toward none, with charity for all..." This was a hella fun episode to do. I am going to do a second one on the Gettysburg Address for Part 2. Like US Grant, I have Mega Man Crush on Abe Lincoln. I actually like US Grant better, but along with MLK, and US Grant, they are easily top 3 for me in terms of my favorite American Heroes.

Airman Khan starts this fresh year of 2022 with a couple of short wishes to everyone a great new year, and marks his second inaugural remarks with takeaways on what he has accomplished recently from the final quarter of 2021, what he is still looking forward to do and achieve, the special takeaways from his current FY2022 airmanship budget he is still working on for months to rectify the actual expenses and costs of running this airmanship forward, and the reasons why his blueprint for economic success is going to turn out better than many can expect in ways not imaginable from January 2021, the month he officially took over as an active Pilot. 2022 will surely be another great year for the books and for his airmanship, according to him.

Our most-listened-to podcast of 2021 featured a speech from 1865: President Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address. Many historians consider it to be one of the best inaugural speeches in U.S. history. The speech was delivered five weeks before the end of the U.S. Civil War and six weeks before Mr. Lincoln was assassinated. Portions of the address are etched in stone in the Lincoln Memorial. The recording used on this podcast, by Lincoln impersonator Walter Trumbull, attempts to re-create what the speech likely would have sounded like, as Mr. Lincoln spoke to a large outdoor crowd without amplification.

Sometimes referred to as "America's Sermon," President Abraham Lincoln's second inaugural speech - delivered March 4th, 1865 - is one of the best known presidential addresses in American history. It should be in EVERY American's memory. "A word fitly spoken by you now would be like 'apples of gold in pictures of silver.'" Alexander H. Stephens, a former Georgia congressman, wrote these words to Abraham Lincoln on December 30, 1860. He quoted from Proverbs 25:11 to persuade Lincoln that a public statement from the president-elect would help greatly in the mounting crisis of the divided country. A student of the Bible in his own right, Lincoln reflected on Stephens's biblical reference and, in a note to himself, used the "apples of gold" reference to clarify the connection between America's constitutional union and the principle of "Liberty to all." https://edsitement.neh.gov/lesson-plans/lesson-1-fragment-constitution-and-union-1861-purpose-american-union If you'd like to support us, donate through Paypal at Romanschapter5@comcast.net https://www.youtube.com/c/TheChristianAtheist/featured https://www.facebook.com/JnJWiseWords https://wisewordsforyouroccasion.wordpress.com   #secondinaugural #secondinauguralspeech #abrahamlincoln #lincoln #fragmentoftheconsititution #constitution #inauguration #inaugural #presidentspeech #unitedstates #unitedstateshistory #americanhistory #famousspeech #famousamericanspeech #1865

Abraham Lincoln delivered two speeches that are considered among the greatest ever delivered.  One was the Gettysburg Address and one was the Second Inaugural.  Most Americans consider the Gettysburg Address to be his greatest, but Lincoln believed his Second Inaugural was his best. I agree.  It changed the way Americans thought about their country.  This is a talk I delivered to a class in the fall of 2020.  They had in front of them the speech itself.  You should print out the speech before you listen to this so you can follow along.  Lincoln had read and admired Feuerbach on how we humans generate our religious thinking.  If you have not listened to the talk on Feuerbach, and are interested, you might do that.  The last minute of the talk gets cut off. Sorry about that.  I was talking about Barack Obama's minister, Reverend Jeremiah Wright.  Reverend Wright was an amazing minister.  His congregation, which is situated in south Chicago, a very poor neighborhood, had wonderful programs.  He had educational tutoring, scholarships, jobs programs, food programs, health programs.  You name it, they did it.  I admire him in many ways.  But he had a style of preaching that was common in the Black community but not well understood outside of that tradition.  I grew up with that style.  The preacher will renounce the congregation for their sins. In my case I remember the minister saying, “You are damned and doomed to a devil's hell.”  But the renunciation was really a reassurance that you can overcome your sin and be a better person.  In one sermon Reverend Wright spoke of the tendency of people to say “God Bless America.”  The Reverend thought they were claiming a status in the eyes of God that they did not deserve.  He said, “NO!  Not God Bless America.  God Damn America!”  It may be hard to believe but that was actually an expression of patriotism, an affirmation that America could be what God meant it to be.  God is in the whirlwind and we can emerge a better nation, a nation truly under God.  But this emerged during a presidential campaign and one of the candidates was a Black man who had attended that church.  This phrase was distorted and misrepresented until candidate Obama had to renounce it.   Lincoln would have agreed with Reverend Wright.   Lincoln DID agree with Reverend Wright, as you can tell.  God is giving us a terrible punishment that we could never have imagined.  “I tremble for my country when I consider that God is just,” as Jefferson said.  Lincoln was even more graphic:  a Black drop of blood will be repaid by a dead white person.  We have to wonder how an American president would fare today if he delivered such a speech.  It was American Exceptionalism, Lincoln style. Two last points.  Reporters were keeping close track of cheering.  Most of the enthusiasm during the talk came from the Black members of the audience.  Many white people were silent.  The white members of the audience were Lincoln's base, his strongest supporters.  And every single one of them had lost someone they knew and loved in that war.  Finally, the comment by Frederick Douglass demands an acknowledgement.  Lincoln and Douglass had become personal friends.  This  unlikely friendship is  analyzed in the wonderful book Giants by John Stauffer. Douglass came by the White House that evening.  The place was packed but Lincoln singled out Douglass and asked what he thought.  Douglass demurred but Lincoln insisted.  “Mr. Lincoln.  That was a sacred effort.”  And so it was.  For those overseas, be aware that I am taking you deep into an American way of thinking.  

By March 4, 1865, the Civil War had slaughtered more than 700,000 Americans and left intractable wounds on the nation. After a morning of rain-drenched fury, tens of thousands crowded Washington’s Capitol grounds that day to see Abraham Lincoln take the oath for a second term. As the sun emerged, Lincoln rose to give perhaps the greatest inaugural address in American history, stunning the nation by arguing, in a brief 701 words, that both sides had been wrong, and that the war’s unimaginable horrors―every drop of blood spilled―might well have been God’s just verdict on the national sin of slavery.Edward Achorn reveals the nation’s capital on that momentous day―with its mud, sewage, and saloons, its prostitutes, spies, reporters, social-climbing spouses and power-hungry politicians―as a microcosm of all the opposing forces that had driven the country apart. A host of characters, unknown and famous, had converged on Washington―from grievously wounded Union colonel Selden Connor in a Washington hospital and the embarrassingly drunk new vice president, Andrew Johnson, to poet-journalist Walt Whitman; from soldiers’ advocate Clara Barton and African American leader and Lincoln critic-turned-admirer Frederick Douglass (who called the speech “a sacred effort”) to conflicted actor John Wilkes Booth―all swirling around the complex figure of Lincoln.In indelible scenes, Achorn vividly captures the frenzy in the nation’s capital at this crucial moment in America’s history and the tension-filled hope and despair afflicting the country as a whole, soon to be heightened by Lincoln's assassination. His story offers new understanding of our great national crisis and echoes down the decades to resonate in our own time.HOST:  Rob MellonFEATURED BREW:  1861 Lager, Lincoln Beer Company, Burbank, CABOOK:  Every Drop of Blood: The Momentous Second Inauguration of Abraham Lincolnhttps://www.amazon.com/Every-Drop-Blood-Lincolns-Inauguration/dp/0802148743/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=every+drop+of+blood&qid=1620783299&s=books&sr=1-1MUSIC:  Bones Forkhttps://bonesfork.com/

Today's episode is all about Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, a man whose story is at the center of the defining moment in American history. President during the Civil War, Lincoln saved the union and freed enslaved Americans, and thus casts a mighty long shadow over anyone who held office since.  Every President since, historians say, has had to “get right with Lincoln.”  But perhaps his story is more complex, as we will learn today. The war dominated Lincoln's presidency, and with it the question of slavery.  He issued the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862 and eventually promoted the 13th amendment to end slavery nationally. He overwhelming won reelection, thanks in large part to the soldiers' vote, and his Second Inaugural stands alongside his Gettysburg Address as arguably the two greatest examples of American oratory, ever.  “With malice toward none,” he proclaimed in early March of 1865, “with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations.”He died mere weeks later, only days after the guns of war fell silent, when felled by an assassin's bullet. Abraham Lincoln thus became in many ways the Civil War's last martyr, an American icon of moral strength, and also a global symbol for humanity's inexhaustible quest for freedom.  But….if that is his legacy….is it accurate?  History has a way of rounding out the rough edges of our icons, leaving a useful image for our own times, but at times an inaccurate portrait of the man or woman as they really were.  What then, should be Lincoln's legacy? More accurately, how do historians remember him? To help answer that question and discuss Lincoln's legacy more broadly, we spoke to two esteemed Lincoln scholars: Dr. Eric Foner and Dr. Edna Medford.   Be sure to check out our show notes for more information on our guests, recommended readings, and more: www.pastpromisepresidency.com.

When you read Abraham Lincoln, you somehow become more than yourself, you become better. And his words want to be read aloud, too. Start with the Second Inaugural—so beautiful—and the Gettysburg Address—his short ones. They are American poems.

Reading and analysis of Lincoln's famous speech, "With malice toward none, with charity for all." Recommended for high school. *Detailed rhetorical analysis of Lincoln's language and purpose *Some explanation of context, but analysis comes primarily out of the language of the speech itself *Historical context related to slavery and the Civil War *Also, you can hear jets flying over in the background because I live near an Air Force base. It's not too loud or distracting.

On this episode of Statewide, the spread of the coronavirus is dominating the headlines and causing numerous cancellations and other changes. We'll learn about some of those. Also, does wearing a mask help? We'll hear from experts. And an author of a new book on Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address talks about the importance of that speech and those who were in attendance that day in 1865. Those stories and more on Statewide.

In this podcast, we’ll focus on President Reagan’s second address. 35 years ago, on January 21st 1985, bitterly cold temperatures in Washington DC forced the cancellation of the Inaugural Parade and required President Reagan to deliver his second inaugural address…indoors, all 2,546 words.Let's listen.

It's the championship fight! Just kidding. It's just the opposite, in fact—an exhortation to the warm embrace of both Testaments by Christians and how they mutually illuminate one another. In this episode we look at all the ways Christians have done the Old Testament wrong—and man, they are legion—en route to commending a more excellent way. We tackle outright rejection of the OT, artificially forcing the OT to say things Christians want it to say, and even piously keeping hands off out of respect for Jewish believers. But how to get it right? Have a listen! Notes 1. On gnosticism and docetism, see Dad’s book Divine Complexity, chapters 2 and 3. 2. Some of my reflections on the problems in the Christian relationship to the Old Testament are in this article “The Top Ten Reasons the Lectionary Sucks and Five Half-Assed Solutions” and in my review of Luther’s Jews by Thomas Kaufmann. 3. Donald H. Juel, Messianic Exegesis. 4. For commentary on the New Perspective on Paul, see Dad’s book Luther and the Beloved Community, chapter 7. 5. For a critique of 19th-century progressivist history of religions theories, see Dad’s Between Humanist Philosophy and Apocalyptic Theology, chapter 1. 6. Harnack, Marcion: The Gospel of the Alien God. 7. Neusner, Judaism in the Beginning of Christianity. 8. Lincoln, Gettysburg Address and Second Inaugural. 9. Richard Lischer talks about Martin Luther King’s use of Scripture in The Preacher King. 10. Deanna Thompson, Deuteronomy. 11. Jenson, Ezekiel. 12. Ephraim Radner, Time and The Word 13.

David Brooks omits whole sentences of Lincoln's Second Inaugural address because what Lincoln said was inconvenient to his argument. No one at the New York Times editorial board dared to mention it to him. Why? Also, Blue Gal reads letters to the editor from the Peoria Journal Star. Hilarity ensues.

Year(s) Discussed: 1791-1793 The lead up to Washington’s second inaugural ended up being much more dramatic than anyone could have imagined as personal conflicts threatened the construction of the Federal City, Hamilton’s affair with Maria Reynolds threatened to be made public knowledge, and Representative William Branch Giles filed resolutions against Hamilton accusing him of official … Continue reading 1.14 – The Second Inaugural →

TAH.org's first Documents in Detail webinar aired on Wednesday, 25 January 2017, focusing on Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address. Professors John Moser, Eric Sands, and Joe Fornieri discussed a number of perspectives on the document, from the prominence of Biblical language throughout, to the political impact of and reaction to the address. The scholars also discussed a counter-factual question regarding how Lincoln might have navigated the minefield of Reconstruction differently - and perhaps more successfully - than his successor, Andrew Johnson. Suggested further reading is Lincoln's Greatest Speech: The Second Inaugural, by Ronald White. Access the full archive of the program, and related documents, here. Access our podcast here. Note: there is a slight echo on one scholar's voice at about the 34-minute mark, which lasts for about 20 seconds. It is the only place where this audio issue came up during the program. The post Documents in Detail: Lincoln’s Second Inaugural appeared first on Teaching American History.

The second inaugural episode in which I talk a lot about myself: who I am, why I am doing this, and other sob stories.

Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: Not as the world giveth, give I unto you.” What do these words mean? How can they shape us in the same way that the 23rd Psalm or Lincoln’s Second Inaugural or “Little Red Corvette” have shaped us today? How does the peace Christ offers differ from the peace the world offers, and how does his peace “let not our hearts be troubled, and neither let [them] be afraid?” Rev. Dr. Larry R. Hayward preaches from John 14:25-27 (KJV).
