It worked out pretty well.

Yes, yes...congratulations and glad to be of some help, young citizen.
We all have a duty to not be uninformed, apathetic and dispassionate.
And the words and legacy of our greatest presidents, Jefferson and Lincoln, serve to constantly remind us of this.
Many (sadly not enough, but many) Republicans nowadays display that they are fed up with the current state of their party and are going back to great Republican leaders like Eisenhower and Lincoln for inspiration.
