Lincoln (2012) // Manhunt (2024) Cinematic Parallels: 

"No one's loved as much as you, no one's ever been loved so much, by the people, you might do anything now. Don't, don't waste that power on an amendment bill that's sure of defeat."

"Abe, you have never been more loved. If you don't have the power to speak truth now...then-" "-No one ever will."

Lincoln (2012) - Dir. Steven Spielberg

Daniel Day Lewis as Abraham Lincoln

It was the life he had chosen. He loved apples, anecdotes, newspapers, political gossip, strong coffee, oysters, fine horses, and his children's pets — the cats as well as the goats, Nanny and Nanko. He neither drank nor smoked nor chewed tobacco, enjoyed - to his wife's chagrin - flirting with women, and indulged his sons, allowing them to clamber over him and run wild, often to the amazement and annovance of his staff and guests. A self-taught reader of philosophy and political economy, of the King James Bible, of Shakespeare, and of Robert Burns, Lincoln made his living practicing law, but politics was his vocation. — Jon Meacham, And There Was Light: Abraham Lincoln and the American Struggle

Every time I think I'm tired of these guys and their endless rivalries, I learn about another crazy facet of the political system of the time and I get obsessed all over again.

You've got the chaos of 1840-1860, where slavery's increasingly becoming the all-important issue. The Whig Party is fracturing over it and turning into a bunch of tiny little one-issue parties that split the Northern vote. The only reason the South isn't seceding is because the chaos in the North keeps Southern-sympathizing Democratic presidents in power. By the time the 1860 election rolls around, the tiny little Northern parties have finally coalesced into the Republican Party, whose one issue is opposing slavery, and the Democrats are fracturing to back three separate presidential candidates. This allows the North to finally get a Republican in the White House, upon which the South immediately throws a tantrum and bails.

Which then transitions us to the political climate of the Civil War, where the war effort is vastly complicated by the fact that you've got to keep a jillion tiny little factions happy to prevent the country from splintering further. You've got the slave-holding border states who need to be placated so they don't decide to secede. You've got abolitionists who want to make the end of slavery the prime object of the war, which would be a great way to send all those border states straight into the arms of the Confederacy. You've got German-Americans and Irish-Americans and a bunch of different ethnic groups who all want representation among the high-ranking officers of the war. Within the Republican Party itself, you've got former Whigs and Know-Nothings and Radical Republicans and Free Soilers and anti-slavery Democrats who all agree that slavery is bad, but disagree about the best way to get rid of it, plus they all retain vastly different political beliefs from their former party associations. Plus, there are still some pro-Union Democrats you have to deal with, who also splinter among themselves into War Democrats and Peace Democrats who disagree on whether we should continue this horrific war or sue for peace.

And then there's the Confederate politics. You have Davis, the so-called President-General who'd rather be leading troops and hates politicking so much that he'll allegedly cross the street when he sees a Congressman coming rather than risk talking to him and be accused of currying political favor. He's dealing with a Congress that's essentially the Anti-Davis Party, because it's made up of a bunch of men who thought they should have been president (and I cannot explain just how hilarious that is to me). They're uniting under their belief that slavery should be preserved, and yet by the end of the war they're considering emancipation efforts in a last-ditch attempt convince France or England to help them out. They seceded because of one issue and they're willing to throw that away rather than admit defeat.

The chaos just keeps going. It's a never-ending series of high-drama rabbit holes to jump down. You couldn't make this stuff up if you tried. Politics nowadays is crazy, but Civil War politics are crazier, plus we have the distance of history that makes it fun to just sit back with a bag of popcorn and watch the insanity unfold.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #i've reached the point of watching 2012 cspan videos to satisfy my curiosity if you were wondering how my day is going #the mosaic book made a mention of how davis' son died during the war just like lincoln's did #which intensified my desire to learn more about davis as a politician #and the comparison was even more fun than i could have imagined #love to see two old guys sit on a stage and judge long-dead politicians

In 2012, I seriously considered accepting an offer from the Obama campaign that would have required me to drop everything and move to somewhere in North Carolina for 4 months just to try to help beat Mitt Romney.

Do you realize how bad things have had to get for me to be genuinely frustrated (and worried!) that he's retiring and won't at least be around trying to talk some sense into his fellow Republicans?

"It's nighttime. The ship's moved by some terrible power at terrific speed. And though it's imperceptible in the darkness, I have an intuition that we're headed towards a shore. No one else seems to be aboard the vessel. I'm very keenly aware of my aloneness."

I have to do this! And I will! Or I will feel ashamed of myself for the rest of my life. Whether or not you fought is what's gonna matter. And not just to other people, but to myself! I won’t be you, Pa, I can’t do that, but I don’t want to be nothing!
