Abraham Lincoln – Project

Why I choose Abraham Lincoln?

I choose Abraham Lincoln because he is considered the most important historic character, without being from an important position, and with the less education or without a good economy he has accomplished the abolition of slavery and this was a big step for the unification of the territory of the United States of America consolidating into a great country.

Lincoln was the pride of the Republicans, being that in the first presidential election that he participated, he wins it by his discourses and ideas that he transmitted to his citizens.

For that reason the capital has his statue which is safeguarding the constitution of the United States of America.

The American citizens symbolized his image as the father of the nation.

How I will represent Abraham Lincoln?

Well, my idea is to customize the image of Abraham as close as possible and simplify a speech the best I can.

I will wear a suit, a top-hat, shoes, a tie and beard.
