[When Lincoln was studying, one exam, the teacher asked Lincoln: "Would you like to answer one difficult question or two easy questions?"

Lincoln answered with confidence: "Answer a difficult question."

Teacher: "Then you answer, how did the eggs come from?"

Lincoln: "Born from chickens."

The teacher asked again: "Where did the chicken come from?"

"Teacher, this is the second question." Lincoln said with a smile.]

[Once, a woman came to Lincoln and she said with confidence: "Mr. President, you must give my son a colonel position. We should have such rights, because my grandfather had participated in the Battle of Raisington, my uncle was the only one who did not escape in Bradunsburg, and my father had participated in the Battle of Naolins, and my husband died in Mantlei, so..."

Lincoln replied: "Madam, your family has served the country for three generations and has made enough contributions to the country. I deeply respect it. Can you give others a chance to serve the country?" The woman had nothing to say and had to leave quietly.]

[Once, Lincoln was giving a speech, and suddenly a young man handed him a note. Lincoln opened it and saw that there were only two words on it: "Follower".

A dark cloud flashed across Lincoln's face, and then he said calmly: "I have received many anonymous letters, all of which are only the main text and no signatures are found. On this day, the gentleman just signed his name, but forgot to write to me." After that, he continued his speech.]

[Once in court, the plaintiff's lawyer spoke first, and spoke a simple argument over and over for two hours, which made the audience impatient. There was a buzzing sound in the audience, and someone actually dozed off.

When it was Lincoln's turn to defend the defendant, he walked up to the podium without saying a word. The buzzing sound in the audience disappeared, and everyone felt very strange. Lincoln waited for a while, took off his coat and placed it on the table, then picked up the glass and drank a sip of water, put it down, and put it on again; then took off his coat and drank water again, so he dared to reconcile five or six times.

The audience in the room was amused by Lincoln's pantomime, and some laughed to death. Lincoln never said a word and walked off the podium with a burst of laughter. His opponent was laughed and lost.]

[Lincoln once served as a non-commissioned officer in the army. The boss of his army was a short colonel who was only 4.3 feet tall, but Lincoln was very tall. During training, Lincoln often bent down to pay attention to the commands issued by the colonel.

The short colonel didn't like his subordinates to bend over and hunch his back, so he often wanted to correct Lincoln's posture: "Lincoln, raise your head and raise it a little more!"

"Yes! Colonel!" Lincoln responded.

"Tall man, raise your head!" the colonel shouted again.

Lincoln couldn't help but ask aggrievedly: "Do I want to keep my high posture often?"

"Yes, that's right." said the colonel.

"So," Lincoln said with a wry smile: "Goodbye, I will never see you."]

[When Lincoln was young, he worked as a farmer, logger, clerk, postman, telecommunication, land surveyor, etc. In order to become a lawyer, he often hiked 30 miles to a court to listen to lawyers' defense speeches, see how they debate and make gestures. He listened to the politicians and orators' passionate speeches while imitating them.

After listening to the evangelical missionaries who were wandering around, waving their arms and making their voices shook the sky, they also learned their appearance after returning, and practiced their speeches repeatedly in front of the woods and cornfields. The success of the speech finally made Lincoln become an eloquent lawyer and eventually entered politics.]

[A little boy about one year old, held his hand by his young mother and came to the square of the park. There were more than a dozen steps.

But the little boy broke free from his mother's hand and he wanted to climb up by himself. He climbed up with his fat little hand, and his mother had no intention of holding him up.

When he climbed up two steps, he felt that the steps were very high. He looked back at his mother. His mother had no intention of reaching out to help him, but his eyes were full of love and encouragement.

The little boy looked up again. He put down the idea of ​​letting his mother hug him, and crawled up with his hands and feet with care. He struggled to climb, his little butt raised high, his little face was red with tiredness, his doll suit was also made of dirt, and his little hands were dirty, but he finally climbed up.

The young mother then stepped forward and patted the soil on her son's body, and kissed her red face.

This little boy is Lincoln.

[Lincoln's father was a farmer and his family was extremely poor. Lincoln understood the time for formal education intermittently, which was less than a year. However, Lincoln developed the good qualities of loving knowledge, pursuing knowledge, kindness, integrity and fearlessness since childhood. He could not afford paper and pen, so he used charcoal to write on the wooden board and practiced writing on the ground with a small wooden stick. He seized all the time to read books and study and practice speeches. Lincoln lost his job, worked as a worker, and worked as a lawyer.

He has been running for parliamentarians and president since he was 29 years old, and has tried 11 times and failed 9 times. Now he is 50 years old and still has not given up and wants to run for president.

It goes without saying that a person has countless steps in his life - life, study and work. How to deal with and climb these steps of life? Should children hold hands, support, or hug them? Different parents will have different answers.

It is obvious that if parents hold on and support their children, they will make their children rely on them, and they often treat their parents as kids and make them difficult to stand on their own. If parents hold their children up the steps and hold their children in their infancy, then the children will become the "general of embracing them", without going through the wind and rain, without seeing the world, and it will be even more difficult to establish themselves in society.

Usually, children have their mouths when they have food, clothes, pick them up and drop them off at school, accompany them at night, and even get into college. Parents have to work as "nannies". After their children graduate from college, they have to go to the unit and become "job agency"... In this way, it is difficult for children to become independent and achieve great success in adulthood.

No matter how rich you are, you cannot make your child rich. You might as well let your child suffer some hardships and have a "stage" to climb by himself. In this way, the child may be able to "work hard" and reach the peak of glory.]

In 1809 AD, Abraham was born on a desolate farm in KFC.

Lincoln's little baby is the last sixteenth president of the United States.

[Lincoln only started to recognize letters when he was fifteen years old. He had to walk the four-mile forest path to school every morning and evening.

He couldn't afford arithmetic books, so he borrowed them from others, copied them down with paper sizes of a letter paper, and then sewed them with twine to make a homemade arithmetic book.

He studied at school by attending classes from time to time, and his knowledge was "left little by little". The formal education he received was only about twelve months in total.

Lincoln’s ability to study hard under difficult circumstances is a manifestation of Lincoln’s failure to surrender to fate, and it is also a place where we should learn from Lincoln.

When Lincoln went to work in the fields, he also brought books with him and read books whenever he had free time. During lunch, he also held corn cakes in one hand and books in the other.

After being nominated as a presidential candidate, he once said, "I was able to achieve this small achievement, which is entirely the knowledge I gained from self-study in the future according to various needs."

"Without reefs, beautiful waves cannot be stirred up." Lincoln's spirit of not surrendering to fate is worth learning from, challenging difficulties and creating good results together.]

...

There are more and more reports about Lincoln in the newspapers.

At the beginning, Lincoln went to give a speech in a city, and gradually it turned into small stories.

These short stories are undoubtedly positive stories. Some of the people who hear these stories tell this story to their children in an attempt to motivate their children to work hard, while others simply start to become interested in Lincoln.

As for Uncle Lincoln, who is fifty years old this year, it is not important at all.

What people now like and love is just the image of Lincoln wrapped in newspapers.

Principal Woolsey of Yale Academy put down the newspaper in his hand, took off the reading glasses hanging on his nose, rubbed the bridge of his nose that was pressed by his eyes, and said with a smile, "Doug, this kid..."

He looked at Lincoln's story in the newspaper, and remembered the story of "The Desolate Cherry Axe" he once told when he first met Doug.

He didn't care much about this sentence at that time, but now he realized that this kind of absurd story actually had such great potential for communication.

Even the potential for this transmission has nothing to do with IQ.

Because, the students at Yale Academy will not be considered bad in terms of family background or knowledge.

But even so, Lincoln stories in the newspaper still fascinated the students of Yale Academy.

There are even many children who are already planning to follow this charming "President" of Lincoln.

right!

That's right!

Although Lincoln is not the president yet!

But these children have already determined that he will definitely become president in this election!

All these kids are like this, what about the others?

When Principal Woolsey was young, he traveled to all the states that joined the United States of America.

He knew how vast America was, and there were countless appearances in both scenery and people.

If these stories will make these people with different experiences support Lincoln.

That……

The power of the media is really terrible!

In fact, although there was no American newspaper group before, it is not new to use the media to promote the presidential election.

However, in the past reports, the publicity of presidential candidates, is just that this person is very good and excellent. Come and choose him.

It is not deeply rooted in people's hearts at all, and it does not make people feel that this person is really worthy of election.

However, this time the US Press Group promoted Lincoln differently.

All publicity is a short story with one story.

Even from beginning to end, Lincoln's ruling philosophy and what he wanted to do after becoming president have not mentioned at all.

However, the effect is unusually good.

In fact, the vast majority of voters do not care what policies the president they elected has implemented.

Because no matter what policies are implemented, they have little to do with them.

In this case, instead of caring about the policies they are promoting, they are more concerned about the president as a "person".

They care more about who this person is, whether it is an excellent person or an evil person.

They like to view and analyze problems from the perspective of "people".

In this case, the American Foley Group, the feedback this time is purely human feedback.

All the stories have only one purpose, which is to greatly exaggerate the personal charm of Abraham Lincoln.

Of course, these little stories in name have nothing to do with Lincoln, and are all rumors.

However, the more Lincoln refuted the rumors, the more everyone believed that this was true.

On the contrary, if he admits it, many people will think that this is a story made up.

"Yes, the world belongs to us, and to their young people. Everyone is the sun, the young people are the sun that has just risen, and we are the sunset that is destined to be extinguished."

An old man who looks about the same age as Principal Woolsey sighed.

As principal Woolsey, Shuoguo only has an old friend who has survived to this day.

This old man with dry skin like a tree bark also has great influence in the United States.

Like Wolsey, he is an educator.
