Lincoln ReadingToday is the anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth in 1809. There is a Lincoln Exhibit at the Murrah Memorial downtown. Here is what Lincoln said about education:
"Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in."

I found it very interesting that Obama, in announcing his run for the Democratic presidential nomination, invoked Lincoln in several ways. Let's hope whomever the next president is can truly focus on education and doesn't get bogged down in a civil war (domestic or foreign), as poor Abe did.
