	A View of the First White House of the Confederacy
		In the Winter of 1860-61, shortly after the election of Abraham Lincoln as the 16th President of the United States, seven Southern states seceded from the Union and formed the Confederate States of America.
		The house, built in the 1830's by a well known contractor and owned by a series of prominent Montgomerians, served as the first White House of the Confederacy from February, 1861 until late May, 1861 when the Confederate Capital was permanently moved to Richmond, Virginia.
		Following the Civil War, the house passed through the hands of several owners before April of 1897, when the newly organized United Daughters of the Confederacy proposed that the State of Alabama should preserve the house.

	Whiskey Bar: Election Prevention Commission?
		Suppose that one week before election day, the United States is hit by a major terrorist attack - I mean a really big one, like a dirty bomb on the Washington Mall or a liquified gas tanker exploding in the port of a major American city.
		The Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate the dates of popular elections to the House and (thanks to the 17th amendment) the Senate, and to set a single, national date for the meeting of presidential electors.
		I've been wondering whether this year's election would prove as momentous as 1860, or 1932 - or whether the 72-year pattern is just historical coincidence.

Seward), and because several other contenders had enemies within the party.
		Lincoln is well known for ending slavery in the United States and he personally opposed slavery as a profound moral evil not in accord with the principle of equality asserted in the Declaration of Independence.

	Abe Lincoln in Illinois (1940)
		ABE LINCOLN IN ILLINOIS (RKO Radio, 1940), directed by John Cromwell, is not actually the life of Abraham Lincoln, but the life Lincoln had lived from his early years to a position that would lead him to politics, and against all odds, his winning the election for the United States presidency in 1860.
		Lincoln's personal problems and trying years in office during the Civil War years leading to the abolishment of slavery in the United States does not get depicted on screen, but during the course of the story, much of what is to occur is hinted with the use of dialogue.
		Following Lincoln's historic presidential debate against Stephen A. Douglas, "Honest Abe," an unlikely candidate of Illinois, fulfills his wife's dream in a job he never wanted, thus, winning the election and presidential seat in the White House.
