        Thank you, Michael. I must say that I enjoy your spots on all the NBC/MSNBC shows. You bring an unmatched gravitas to any subject or question presented to you. (I apologize for my glib moniker just this once)

        Our great American president. How ashamed he would be of Congress in 2018. Lawrence Lessig and I asked the candidates to back RCV and matching funds in 2016. Unsuccessfully. #UnlockCongress #Shutdownhttp://bit.ly/2b7l18D

        Lincoln would be so ashamed of this corrupt Trump administration. He would have switched to the Democratic side in a heartbeat for sure.

        imagine if Lincoln had not chosen Andrew Johnson as his running mate in 1864, but an abolitionist with broad appeal.

        He was a great man and icon. And I was also hoping that if its not too much trouble, some of y'all could help me. Even $5 would pay for a days transport to dialysis and help keep me alive. Thank you.https://www.gofundme.com/i-need-money-for-dialysistrasport …

        Also known as the Dakota 38+2, this is what I will forever think of when I hear the word Lincoln. Just to be clear, he wanted to hang over 200, an aide talked him out of it.pic.twitter.com/vqoA8J2OWB

        how hard would it be to say 'this day, 1864' ? We have more characters per Tweet now.
