On today's date in 1863, President Lincoln delivered what has come to be known as one of the most important speeches in our short history, the Gettysburg Address.
Let us take a moment to recognize and honor Lincoln's vision that "this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
