Abraham Lincoln – President
Over the course of his four years as president, Lincoln acted as commander-in-chief of the Union Army to achieve his first goal – preservation of the Union. He clearly articulated his vision for the future of the country in the Gettysburg Address – to create a “new nation” based on the premise that “all men are created equal” who were served by a government that was made “by the people, of the people and (most importantly) for the people.”
