Obama started his first acts of coming into office by following the train path of Abe Lincoln, The first president to make way to equalify the races together and free african slaves. First off let me start by saying that Abe Lincoln's trip to washington dc was made on a railroad system that was built by asian slaves....alot of people forget that the Chinese were slaves as well as blacks. We just don't hear them bitching and complaining about it.....not being racist just pointing out a fact. Ok so anyways here is my point Obama and other blacks praise Abe as a great president for the head way he made for blacks, well truth be told he freed black slaves so they could return to african with their people not stay in america and gain freedom like white american's....(once again not racism just fact)...Here is a qoute from Abe himself and you tell me if he ever intended intergration and equal rights...........  "I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races. I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people."

Abraham Lincoln

From the lips of Abe himself.
