The Gettysburg Address
President Lincoln opens his Gettysburg address by thoroughly reminding the American
people that the main goal and purpose of the United States is for equality and
democracy. He then continues on saying that the United States is entangled in a
horrible Civil War, with many men dying, dying and making American soil their
final resting place. With much exuberance he exclaims that these men who have
passed will not die in vain. Then he says that the world may not remember this
speech, but the world will always remember the sacrifices these men made. In
end he states that America "shall have a new birth of freedom", that
our great nation will come out of this horrible war as a stronger more united
nation.
