Is Obama the reincarnation of Abraham Lincoln??


Ok, this is a tabloid-type question. I don't seriously entertain the thought, but it IS interesting to think about:

- both Senators from Illinois
- oration skills
- not sure Lincoln was known for his charisma?

It seems like Obama is coming out of no where. Just some random thoughts...

5. Both are lawyers
Lincoln suffered bouts of depression. I've never heard anything about Obama suffering from depression.

9. Lincoln was a skeptic who paid public lip service to god.
I can only hope Obama is the same way.
