        The GOP forgets that Lincoln was part of the Enlightenment movement. Now they want to oppress what their party stands for.

        In Lincoln's time, the Republicans were the more liberal party. Anti-slavery, strong federal gov, etc.

        The winners of the anti-enlightenment award are muslims. Continue this way and the dark ages will no longer just be history.
