00:00I'll get you!
00:30When we're leaving, Ma, I want to go to Washington.
00:45What's wrong?
00:47Where's Papa?
00:48Saying goodbye.
00:51My heart is heavy at the thought of leaving this place.
00:55I've raised my children here in Springfield.
00:57Buried one.
01:02This is my home.
01:05But we live in perilous times.
01:09Our nation is in danger.
01:12But let us believe the words of the poet.
01:16That behind every cloud, the sun still shines.
01:21Pray for me.
01:25Farewell.
01:26Good luck, sir.
01:29Listen to this one, Abe.
01:31The United States must avoid civil war at all costs.
01:41Keep the South happy, Mr. Lincoln, and make New Mexico a slave state.
02:01Absolutely not.
02:04Slavery can stay where it is, but I will not allow it to move west.
02:09Excuse me, Harry.
02:19Well, what's the matter, John?
02:21You look like you're seeing a Democrat.
02:24Yes, sir.
02:25There's a problem, sir.
02:27We'll have to change trains.
02:29We've discovered there's some men at the next stop waiting to kill you, sir.
02:35Ah, why can't they see it, John?
02:56Secretary Seward is waiting, sir.
03:00We should have been there already.
03:01This good northern woman says, let the South go.
03:06We don't need them, she says.
03:09Don't they realize the whole world's watching us?
03:13Europe says democracy can't work.
03:16It'll fall apart.
03:18But I say it can work.
03:20I say government by the people is worth saving.
03:24So were those papers I gave you to sign.
03:27Where are they, sir?
03:29Hmm?
03:30Oh.
03:31I put them in my filing cabinet.
03:49Mr. President, sir.
03:52Secretary Seward.
03:55Willie, Tad, your father has work to do.
03:58Run along now.
03:59Oh, let them stay, John.
04:01They're the only joy I've had all day.
04:04Mr. President.
04:05President Lincoln.
04:07Besides, here comes Seward now.
04:10Sorry to keep you waiting, William.
04:12Never mind that.
04:14The rebels have fired on Fort Sumter.
04:17It's war, Mr. President.
04:20War.
04:20War.
04:20War.
04:20War.
04:20Just wait till the rebels catch a glimpse of this Union Army.
04:44They'll run all the way back to Richmond.
04:46A right powerful army.
04:50Let's spray it super quickly.
04:53I give the whole thing 90 days, Mr. President.
04:57The rebels won't stand up to this.
04:59The rebels won't stand up to this.
04:59The rebels won't stand up to this.
05:03The rebels won't stand up to this.
05:34Good.
05:35Good.
05:36I convinced the President to take his daily carriage ride.
05:39Nothing he could do here.
05:46It's from the battlefield.
05:49What's it say?
05:50What's it say?
05:51Union Army in full retreat.
05:59Rebel forces, too strong.
06:06Five hundred dead.
06:10Send help for the wounded.
06:14Twenty-six hundred.
06:17Oohh.

06:42THE END
07:12THE END
07:42THE END
07:47There was no patriot like Baker, so noble and so true.
07:56He fell as a soldier on the field, his face to the sky of blue.
08:02No squeamish notions filled his breast.
08:06The union was his theme.
08:08No surrender and no compromise.
08:11His day's thought and night's dream.
08:15His country has her part to play towards those he left behind.
08:20His widow and his children all.
08:23She must always keep in mind.
08:26How old are you, son?
08:35Ten, sir.
08:37Very impressive.
08:40Colonel Baker would be honored.
08:43Thank you, Willie.
08:52Willie was very close to the colonel.
08:56We all were.
08:57Well, let's begin.
09:03Secretary of War.
09:05More telegrams from General McClellan.
09:09He says he cannot attack until he receives 100,000 more soldiers.
09:15This has gone far enough.
09:16I agree.
09:17Yes, yes.
09:17This has got to stop.
09:18We must act now.
09:19I want McClellan out of there.
09:21Gentlemen, who will I replace him with?
09:25Anyone.
09:26Anyone may do for you, Mr. Wells.
09:28But I must have someone.
09:36Let Mr. Lincoln free the slaves and call them into military service.
09:41Let them form a great army to march into the south
09:45and free their captive brothers,
09:48raising the banner of freedom forever.
09:51Well written.
09:53Horace Greeley, I reckon.
09:55Frederick Douglass.
09:56Hmm?
09:57He's a self-educated man and a former slave.
10:06If I abolish slavery, Mr. Sumner, I'd lose a lot of support.
10:12On the contrary.
10:13Mr. President, the North is waiting for a greater cause.
10:19Not in Missouri, they aren't.
10:21Not in Kentucky or Maryland either.
10:24And if we lose them, we lose the whole war.
10:28But how can you fight a war without attacking the thing that started it?
10:34No, Mr. Sumner.
10:36My only goal is to save the Union.
10:40To save democracy.
10:41Abraham, come quickly.
10:45Come.
10:48There's nothing I can do, Abe.
10:51He's slipping away.
10:55I'm sorry.
10:57I'm sorry.
10:57I'm sorry.

12:20But then we loved him so.
12:30Tis the wink of an eye. Tis the draught of a breath.
12:37From the blossoms of health to the paleness of death.
12:45From the gilded saloon to the beer and the shroud.
12:51Oh, why should the spirit of man be proud?

19:17i've got plenty of time
19:19these politicians are the greatest windbags known to man
19:23the sixteenth president of the united states
19:27four score and seven years ago
19:45our fathers brought forth on this continent
19:48a new nation
19:51conceived in liberty
19:53and dedicated to the proposition
19:56that all men are created equal
19:59now
20:02we are engaged in a great civil war
20:06testing whether that nation
20:09or any nation so conceived and so dedicated
20:12can long endure
20:14endure
20:16we are met on a great battlefield of that war
20:20we have come to dedicate a portion of that field
20:25as a final resting place
20:27for those who here gave their lives
20:30that that nation might live
20:33it is altogether fitting and proper
20:36that we should do this
20:38but in a larger sense
20:40we cannot dedicate
20:43we cannot consecrate
20:45we cannot hallow this ground
20:48the brave men
20:50living and dead
20:52who struggled here
20:54have consecrated it
20:56far above our poor power
20:58to add or detract
21:00the world will little note
21:02nor long remember
21:04what we say here
21:06but it can never forget
21:07what they did here
21:11it is for us
21:13the living rather
21:15to be dedicated here
21:17to the unfinished work
21:19which they who fought here
21:21have thus far so nobly advanced
21:24it is rather for us
21:26to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us
21:31that from these honored dead
21:33we take increased devotion
21:36to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion
21:43that we here highly resolve
21:46that these dead shall not have died in vain
21:51that this nation under God
21:54shall have a new birth of freedom
21:57and
21:59that government of the people
22:02by the people
22:04for
22:06the people
22:08shall not perish
22:11from the earth
22:17take the picture, take the picture
22:18are you scared?
22:19was I scared ma'am?
22:21hahaha
22:23I'm lucky I didn't die a strike
22:26congratulations Mr. President
22:28thank you Senator
22:30putting this nation back together again won't be easy
22:35Was I scared, ma'am?
22:38I'm lucky I didn't die a strike.
22:40Congratulations, Mr. President.
22:42Thank you, Senator.
22:44Putting this nation back together again won't be easy.
22:47It's a good thing you were re-elected.
22:50Had a cartoonist tell me the same thing.
22:53Said he didn't like me much as a president,
22:55but I was so dang fun to draw, he voted for me anyhow.
23:05Um, excuse me, Senator, Mary?
23:09Certainly.
23:10I'm an American citizen too, sir.
23:14That may be,
23:15but no black person's ever attended a presidential reception.
23:20Then I'll suppose I'll have to be the first.
23:23I kind of doubt it.
23:24Mr. Douglas, it's all right, it's all right.
23:28It's Frederick Douglas.
23:29I saw you in the crowd today when I gave my address.
23:37There is no man in the country whose opinion I value more than your own.
23:42Tell me.
23:44What did you think?
23:45I thought...
23:47I thought it was a sacred effort.
23:52I'm glad you liked it.
23:53One month later,
23:58on the night of April 14th, 1865,
24:02Abraham Lincoln was shot.
24:05He died the following morning.
24:08The entire nation mourned its loss.
24:10The entire nation mourned its loss.
24:40One life,
24:44Live with courage and care.
24:49One life,
24:52Yes, that's all that it takes.
24:57One hand,
25:00That will never be halted.
25:04One life that the world cannot break.
25:12One life,
25:15Lit by heavenly faith.
25:20One life,
25:22Shining through the dark.
25:25One life,
25:29One mind,
25:30One life,
25:30Seeing visions of ramp,
25:35One word,
25:38Igniting the spark,
25:41See how it flows,
25:45See how it grows,
25:48Changing the world, we don't wait to go on
25:57Give me hope that we stand for the price
26:01When the one life is ended and past
26:04All that life will be right and will last forever
26:10Forever
26:18One life given up for a cause
26:27One soul, oh how it will soar
26:34One day that will not be forgotten
26:41One day that will live evermore
26:48One day that will flourish and fail
26:57One day that's all that it takes
27:04One day that will never be haunted
27:11One day that the world cannot bring
27:19See how it flows, see how it flows
27:26Changing the world, we are raging the world
27:33Giving hope that we stand for the price
27:38When the one life is ended and past
27:41For that life and the pride will last forever
27:48Forever
27:50Forever
27:51Forever
27:59THE END
28:29THE END
