The Biggest Expectation

The recently sworn in US President, Obama has made no secret about his Admiration of one of the US Greatest Presidents, Lincoln.

Like Lincoln, Obama representing Illinois before taking the Presidency.
Like Lincoln, Obama has appointed his Biggest Rival during the Presidency Campaign, Clinton, giving her one of the most important roles in his Administration.
Like Lincoln, Obama used an old-style train to travel all the way from Illinois to Washington to take up his Presidency.

If Obama is priding himself to "Think & Act" like Lincoln, with his old-style train as the Clearest gesture, he could be reminding if not Expecting the US people to pride themselves to "Think & Act" as the "People of Lincoln's Time".

During which period (i.e. 1860's), there was No Credit Card, No LCD TV, No LV........let's all go back to the Basics and riding through all these Tough Times ahead! And how many people back then actually own their homes?

It's interesting to also see how Obama could be related to Lincoln.
Lincoln was the US President to Free the Black Slaves and Obama is the First Black US President.

Let's hope their Fates are Different,
Lincoln was the First US President being Assassinated.

Fate
Life is about "Trying Our Best"
