re: #374 Daisy

You could be substantively correct in that he never came right out and said, “I’m another Lincoln”. However, the first time I ever heard him speak (after Kerry, at that Democratic convention) he identified himself closely w/Lincoln .. and he’s not gone to any trouble to correct the misrepresentation of the ‘amazing similarity’ by the MSM.

His admiration of Lincoln is based largely of him being inspired by him. If you are inspired by Reagan for example, it does mean you think you are another Reagan. The media tends to drive the Kennedy link more then anything else, and he’s no Kennedy, nor Lincoln. We don’t have any idea who he’ll be compared to yet.
