- No man embodies the "American Dream" more than Abraham Lincoln. His vision of the unity of the United States in freedom and the abolition of slavery made him an icon. Lincoln was assassinated in Washington's Ford Theatre on Good Friday 1865 because of his visionary policies.

President Lincoln shall be forever remembered in the history of America and the world at large, his contribution to mankind up to date is immense. Continue to rest in peace Mr President
Absolutely and I still get emotional sometimes when I reflect on President Lincoln work for the USA!
@@AmericaVoiceBig what if. What would have happened if he had not been assassinated?
@@yvonneplant9434 I agree, but we will not know. His bitter rivals could have gotten him or wrecked his work up until then.
From here in the UK I am and always will be, an admirer of your President Abraham Lincoln-a truly great man, who now belongs to the ages...
I also believe that the USA is the greatest country on earth...
🙏🇬🇧👍
Indeed, but at 4:31 what kinda bothers me is that here, he’s wearing a night shirt when in fact, his doctors stripped him to see if theyre any other additional wounds. Yep, Lincoln remained unclothed for eight hours before dying at 7:22 am. Still agree with you on Lincoln, though.
Well said 😊
President Lincoln is a Absolutely legend and I still get emotional sometimes when I reflect on President Lincoln work for the USA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Americavoice-
Lincoln is spinning in his grave because of what the USA has become in 2023.
So is MLK and JFK.
One of the smartest presidents we had and he knew at times of what he’s doing may be controversial.
This video is so full of historical inaccuracies! Booth and Herold took shelter in a tobacco barn owned by Richard Garrett. Booth survived for several hours after being shot in the neck--which paralyzed him! He was dragged to the Garrett's front porch where he died just as the sun was coming up.
Lincoln's body was placed in a temporary tomb with the remains of his son Willie--which had accompanied him on the train all the way to Springfield, Illinois. Lincoln's coffin would be moved and opened several times for the next 30 years or so! There was even an attempt to steal the body and hold it for ransom!
Also, when he was laid on the bed, Lincoln was undressed when he died as Dr Leale stated that they remove his clothing to re-examine him and remained naked under the covers and sheets.
The documentary doesn't mention..... Mr. Stanton. 😊
Arch Stanton?
Alot of Historians and Scholars truly believe that Stanton was Neck DEEP Involved with Conspiracy to Murder Lincoln! Stanton was a Vile? Evil Snake whom it wouldn't Surprise me 1 Bit if he was Involved with the Murder!
He now belongs to the ages.
Love how Booth sees himself as a victim
I thought the soldiers were told to take Booth alive ?
They were, but Boston Corbett shot and killed Booth anyway.
Wait…what? Booths body was not thrown overboard.
I think Lincoln was such a good president, he'd even enjoy seeing how Andrew Johnson finished his second term, no matter how everyone else thought of Johnson.
Even James Buchanan, Lincoln's supposed polar opposite, was mourning his assassination, even he knew Lincoln was one of the greatest presidents where *he* himself was the worst.
Beautiful documentary
Wrong fact: The last photo of Abraham Lincoln was NOT days before his assassination. It was a few weeks before his assassination (March 6, 1865). Lincoln was seated while facing in a 3/4 view looking to his left. The photo shown here was taken on February 5, 1865.
A few days a few weeks. Depending on who's telling the story.
@itsjustnopinionok the story is false. The fact is that the last photo is from March 6, 1865. The photo shown was from February 5, 1865.
Lincoln was never our enemy he was our friend booth is our enemy poor Mary i feel bad rest in peace Honest Abe we will never forget you you did right things to help our state of America 🇺🇸 good bye Lincoln you were our hero for freeing slaves that was very kind of him to free the people in slaved
Fact: did you know that Lincoln's dog fido i think was his name he was also assassinated a few months after Lincoln was assassinated
Yeah. Lincoln’s life was very tragic
@@matthewhedrichjr.5445 I know poor marry there is no way she recovered from almost her whole family's death but at least she had robart and tadd I feel so so bad he was a great man Lincoln.
I went and found the site of the tobacco barn where Booth died about 25 years ago. It was in the median strip of rt 301 in MD. It was just an overgrown patch of jungle then - now probably another lane of 301.
It was not 25 years ago it was more then that
Median still there.
.. It's still there close to a road in a field ..
I wish the film makers had made up their minds what kind of smokestack the train engine had. In some pictures it's a csbbage stack, which i think is what it actually was, and in some it's a plain one.
This thing bounces around with much inconsistency.......and I don't mean just the smokestacks...
President Lincoln remember you AMERICA
4:31 Lincoln was in a full night gown but a verified fact shows that after Lincoln was laid diagonally on the bed, attending physician Dr Charles Leale had strip away the clothing on Lincoln so he and the other doctors can re-examine him for any possible additional wounds and facilitate warm treatments to his unclothed body. And yes, Lincoln was unclothed (with no clothes on) throughout the whole evening until the morning of his death.
Still sad that Lincoln didn’t deserve to be killed, but Grant still did better than Johnson in terms of Reconstruction.
Why does this bother you so much? You posted it three (3) times.
didn't know that Booth had shaved his lip
Boothe rocking ninja pro
😢lincholn hearth Day
He was a republican not demorat
OMG 😱 Herold actually looks like the original Herold !
When he has the hat on for sure.
How come we don’t have pictures of Booth deceased? I have questions
So full of inaccurate information but entertaining . If you are from the north.
I feel sorry
Many will disagree with me because Mrs Sarott (sp?) Was a woman, but I think she WAS INVOLVED, of course she didn't shoot President Lincoln, but I think she knew plenty AND gave them a place to meet and store weapons. People want to make her look like a helpless female, she WASN'T. She was by all accounts a very strong woman and intelligent. I believe she was guilty..
And she swung for it ! 🎉
She was USED As a Pawn by Stanton to get her Son, John Surratt, She called Stantons Call and PAID With her Life!! Stanton was a Vile, Evil excuse for a Human being
I feel like Trump has the same calling on his life and God will bring it all to pass. I don't know anyone else who could do what he is doing and has been doing. Only God will get the credit because God will actually do it
Absolutely and I still get emotional sometimes when I reflect on President Lincoln work for the USA! I believe Trump with God's will sit out this term so that every American citizen wakes up to the disgusting 2 sided justice system and see the USA current state of massive corruption!
Booth committed worst crime of century
Didnt know that Booth died at the same time as Lincoln did
Not exactly. Lincoln at 7:22am, and Boothe at 7:22pm.
@@bluesky7333 ah ok
@@bluesky7333 That is not correct. He was tracked down at about 2 a.m. on April 26, 1865 by the 16th New York Cavalry regiment, was shot after a few hours by Boston Corbett and died between 7:00-7:15 am.
@@GBU61 The video states 7:22 and claims same time.
cause he didnt
As tragic as it was, maybe it was Gods intention that President Lincoln died, he died a true American hero, none of us know if that reputation would have changed if he had finished his last 4 years. All I am 100% sure of, is slavery would have continued much longer without his cool head and determination to end it...
Absolutely and I still get emotional sometimes when I reflect on President Lincoln work for the USA!
I hate to put a rain on what Is otherwise a nice comment, but if your God intentionally makes people die because they do their jobs well or have good qualities. Then that speaks volumes of his character and not in a good way.
May Booth be remembered with vile infamy along those such as Benedict Arnold and Aaron Burr
Yeah along with James Buchanan.
@@matthewhedrichjr.5445 and Andrew Jackson and Woodrow Wilson,
@@arlonfoster9997 yep. These two as well. Shame Lincoln was killed. Sure he was controversial when he was alive but his assassination shocked and devastated America
I think, even Booth believed that Herold deserved to be hanged ☺️
RipRest in peace
There is no way Herald left the Garret’s Tobacco barn. Both of them were locked in it by Garret’s son because thwy
Tyrant
Could use Boothe today!!!
I'd say we need several.
You seem evil enough. You'll do.
@Mark Porter in what context, exactly?
