Behind The Great Emancipator Analysis
Behind the great emancipator's created public persona lies the real Abraham Lincoln, a man who not only used his political standing on slavery to get
into presidency by consistently changing his opinion on them, but actually had an ulterior motive to free the slaves with a questionable document, the
emancipation proclamation. While some historians like Eric Foner in The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery and Richard Striner's
Father Abraham: Lincoln's Relentless Struggle To End Slavery would agree that this change can be described as growth, others like James Oakes essay
Freedom National: The Destruction of Slavery in the United States, 1861 – 1865 would say that it was all part of his initial plan to free the slaves.
James M. McPherson would complement Lincoln on his character, but other more daring historians would challenge the idea that Lincoln had actually
freed the slaves with the emancipation proclamation, something Henry Louis Gates's Lincoln on Race & ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
As Lerone Bennett Jr. quotes in his book, when the emancipation is "taken at face value, the legal shackles from four million black slaves" are removed
but not the physical shackles that tie them to their owners. It is this fact that makes the efficiency of the Emancipation Proclamation questionable. In
McPherson's review of Cox's book, he mentions Vincent Harding who makes the point that "Lincoln did not free the slaves, they freed themselves by
escaping from their master to Union lines." Gates, Bennett and Lincoln himself also makes the observation that only 200,000 slaves were actually
freed because of the Emancipation Proclamation. It was actually the thirteenth amendment that had actually freed the slaves on January 1st,

Chapter Eight Of The American Era
Chapter eight speaks of the growth of the American "empire", using political manipulation to control the south. During the reconstruction of the South,
many Southerners felt less aided and crippled further due to taxes, political reformation, and of course the loss of slave labor. In terms of political
corruption, the Southern states were forced back into the union but were denied representation in the Union, and used political control to rob the states
financially. Taking the votes of the newly freed blacks also created a tension with white and black relations that last to even today, commonly from the
Ku Klux Klan. If anything, the attempt to create stability to the war–torn South ended up making things worse in both the North and South. Chapter
nine is discussing how Lincoln 's true legacy is placed, most notably the construction of the "American System" suggested by Henry Clay. With his
presidency, Lincoln threatens that he will attack any state that fails to collect enough funds for its protectoral tariffs. Lincoln also issued large sums of
money to the construction of transcontinental railroad lines. Finally, he forced the commission of the much needed national bank, the backbone of the

The Reconstruction Era which followed the Civil War was a period marked by a severe effort to re–establish a depleted and distraught society. The

of freedom. Some, who had naively assumed that ending slavery would resolve the problem of racial inequality, overlooked the prejudice and

In his 2nd Inaugural address, Lincoln advocated that the Civil War was God's punishment of a nation having human beings kept in bondage (Abraham
Lincoln "Second Inaugural Address: March 4, 1865"). Just for a slight moment was Lincoln's goal realized before the acts of then President Johnson
attempted to strip away Lincoln's foundation for freedom. Before Lincoln was assassinated he managed to get the thirteenth amendment passed in
House after it failed to do so in 1864. This was important for Lincoln with elections coming up and he knew that if this wasn't passed his chances of
reelection would be doubtful.
The thirteenth amendment abolished slavery and involuntary servitude and was the first grant of civil rights given to African Americans ("Thirteenth
Amendment: January 31, 1865"). The 14th Amendment was passed into law and protects the rights against state infringements, defines citizenship,
prohibits states from interfering with privileges and immunities, requires due process and equal protection, punishes states for denying vote, and
disqualifies Confederate officials and debts ("Fourteenth Amendment: June 16, 1866"). For the first time the word "equal" was established into the

Cooper Union Conflict
When Abraham Lincoln gave his Cooper Union Address it is doubtful that he knew its impact on the country and ultimately the future of the Union. In
his Cooper Union Address, future president Abraham Lincoln thoroughly rebuked the southern Democrats Stephen A. Douglas' statements about the
Republicans' slavery stance by using not only the oppositions wording against them, he supported his arguments with true examples sited from the
signatories of the Constitution and their past voting record, from information gleaned during his career as a lawyer, and from his sense of honor and
ethics. Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party had some very strong constituents, mainly those with very strong Free Soil tendencies. For this
reason along with personal beliefs on Lincoln's part the Republicans, led by Lincoln in the presidential election, were strongly against the expansion of
slavery into the territories
By using past precedents Lincoln gave some serious weight to his arguments on the nature of the Republican's stance on slavery and the federal
government's rights to limit slavery in the Territories. Since the opposing party's argument was that the framers knew more about the issue of slavery
and its expansion than they did now. Lincoln turned this argument for the use of the Republicans by explaining the voting records of the majority of
the men who signed the Constitution. When the question of slavery in the Northwest Territory became an issue Lincoln sites the fact that of

The racism that existed in the United States in the 1950s was born hundreds of years earlier with the institution of slavery. For over two hundred years,
until slavery was abolished by the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865, slavery had been a dominant social and economic force in the South. By 1860, the

Roughly six weeks before he is to be assassinated at Ford's Theater by John Wilkes Booth, Lincoln understood that in order to reunite America he
could not glorify the North while simultaneously denigrating the South, as that would bring about harm and alienation to a recovery in which his
aim was "to bind up the nation's wounds" (Dolbeare, pg. 277). With determination to reconstruct the devastated South and usher in a new chapter in
America's history, the President succeeded when it came to not discerning between his beliefs, and those of the secessionists. A towering figure who
stood 6'4", our tallest President's use of Biblical quotes embodies a large portion of his 2nd Inauguration. It is evident that Lincoln is a man of
tremendous spiritual faith, and one who postulates that the will of God purged the nation of the evil of slavery, albeit through a grim, prolonged,
tumultuous battle. By not fixating on which side is at greater fault, Lincoln urged sympathy for citizens of the South, claiming that soldiers (and
citizens alike) "read the same Bible, and pray to the same God" ( Dolbeare, pg. 277). By uttering the phrase "care for him who shall have borne the

How Did Abraham Lincoln Overcome President?
Abraham Lincoln
Going from being raised in a low income family to the sixteenth president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln gained much respect. He was one of
the most well know presidents of the United States. He gave many powerful speeches that left the crowd astonished. Lincoln was a very honest person
and later became known as Honest Abe. Abraham Lincoln became known worldwide after leading the US through its only Civil War, and by doing
everything in his power to free the slaves. Abraham Lincoln overcame the odds of becoming president. He overcame the odds by giving short but very
powerful and meaningful speeches. Becoming president was a struggle because he was very strongly opinionated, and he was not liked by the majority
of the people. Abraham found many inconsistencies between the "popular sovereignty" principle and the Dred Scott decision within the courts. The
popular sovereignty principle was an idea of Abraham Lincolns rival, Stephen Douglas. After he pointed out those inconsistencies the rivalry became
more intense.

Douglas to the Republican Party, so Abraham wouldn't have a chance at the presidency. Douglas eventually beat Lincoln, and Lincoln was then

In the book, The Radical and the Republican: Fredrick Douglass, Abraham Lincoln, and the triumph of Antislavery Politics, written by James Oakes

slaves. Oakes interpretations of both men were very detailed in showing their reason and politics behind their positions they served in society on the
topic of slavery. Abraham Lincoln, the republican, and Fredrick Douglass, the radical, two incredibly distinct people, yet both shared similar views
towards their hatred on the institution of slavery and their highest hopes for freedom. "How can a relationship so different, yet a like lead to the road
to emancipation of the slaves?" Both men had different reasons for their detestation toward slavery, yet both worked to bring the emancipation and
fix the injustice regarding the slaves. Douglass worked by being a famous orator preached against slavery and eventually joined the Republican Party
where he worked with Lincoln and the party to promote and work toward the end of slavery. By 1858 Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass were
saying the same thing, preaching the same antislavery politics. Liberty or Slavery must become law of the land" (Oakes 5) Beyond Garrisonian

Analysis Of The Lincoln Electric Company
Analysis of the Lincoln Electric Company
Upon review of the Lincoln Electric Company case study conducted by Arthur Sharpish of Harvard University, I came to find that the culture within the
company is what elevated Lincoln Electric above all other companies in that field. When analyzing the report I considered many aspects of the
company in order to determine what exactly that separates Lincoln from their competition.
First, I examined the ongoing influence that has been exerted by the founders of the company. Lincoln Electric was founded by James F. Lincoln at the
turn of the 20th century. His influence in leadership and his approach toward the customer has stood the test of time. James believed that the success of
his company lay with the customer and a motivated labor force.
It is obvious that the customer 's interests, not the stockholder 's, should come first." In 1947 he said, "Care should be taken ... not to rivet attention on
profit. Between 'How much do I get? ' and 'How do I make this better, cheaper, more useful? ' the difference is fundamental and decisive." (J, Lincoln)
James valued customer satisfaction above all else, which inevitably led to the innovation and production of a great product that met the consumer's
needs.
His views on employee retention continue to be a guide within the company. If fulfilling customer needs is the desired goal of the company then
employee performance and productivity are the means by which this goal can best be achieved.

which wanted to end slavery. Lincoln was not proslavery however he was a politician which dictated how he handled his beliefs in the public eye.

After this was done the battle in Antietam would happen. This was also excellent timing. While the battle was basically a draw the North was able to
spin it thanks to newspaper depicting it as a win. Lincoln seized this opportunity to send the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. By doing this he
opened the door to his power of Commander and Chief of the United States Army. The timing of this document was also quite timely. It was sent
out 5 days after the battle of Antietam and just hundred days before the New Year. It stated that if the Confederates stated in the war the Union
would start freeing slaves. The South did not pull out of the war as a result on January 1, 1863 Lincoln made the proclamation public. He justified
doing so by stating in the proclamation that he was the Commander and Chief and this was a necessary war measure. On this day no slaves were
technically freed since there was a restriction on who could be freed. The restriction stated that in order for slaves to be freed they must reside in a
state that was in active rebellion against the United States. All the Union slaves were already free so it did not affect them over all but as the Union

The Lincoln Electric Company has dominated the market of welding machine manufacturing since its infancy in the late 1900's. Their continued
success is due to companies' ability to adapt different organizational cultures, into a beautiful melting pot of profitability. Management could be
described as a mix of both outcome–oriented and stable styles, with a hefty dose of people–oriented cultures, all wrapped into one.
In 1895, engineer, inventor, and businessman John C. Lincoln startedLincoln Electric Company. His brother James would join him shortly, in his
business endeavor, starting in 1907 (Sharplin, A 1989). James managerial style would most closely be described as people–oriented. He once said
"Labor and management are properly not warring camps; they are parts of one organization in which they must and should cooperate fully and happily."

moving to a different is not hard, but it is not as easy as it sounds. People do so for various reasons: to escape as a refugee – if there are certain

Money & Spirituality – Do They Mix? By Anisa Aven Aug 17, 2007 The hoary argument that you cannot have both– spirituality and abundance –
continues to proliferate and entangle the minds and experience of many seekers. As a culture, we constantly deal with the subconscious remnants
caused by the conflict between money and spirituality. We have allowed toxic ideas to pervade our unlimited essence like a virus destroying our
intrinsic right to wealth and fulfillment. Ideas such as 'money is the root of all evil ', that 'it 's easier to get a camel through the eye of a needle than
for a rich man to get into heaven ', and that 'if you are rich, then you must be either a crook, selfish, or hardened ' abound in the global consciousness
poisoning our natural right to wealth. Additionally, the infamous subconscious impression amongst many spiritual practitioners and seekers, 'you
cannot be spiritual and a servant of the Divine, if you charge for your talent or knowledge ' continues to be the self–imposed prison that forces many
spiritual workers to thrash about in a sea of lack. These are just an infinitesimal sampling of the money–and– spirituality–don 't–mix disease. Indeed, if

wealth but at the cost of the fulfillment of their divine destiny and at the expense of personal peace. On the other side, when one pursues

Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address
Throughout the semester, the readers have been clashing with each other over which label best fits the author, but they have ignored the minute
particulars. These readers are looking at the forest as a broad generalization, and they are missing out on what the forest really is... a bunch of trees. All
of these trees are diverse but similar: they are American authors, and the forest is American literature. One might think that this is a flimsy analogy, but
it is the most apt and succinct way of explaining this issue. To truly understand any text, one must couch it within historical context; to be valid, an
interpretation has to make sense within the historical context, and it has to agree with the minute particulars of the text. If either of these criterion are
not met, then the interpretation will not be representative of the text whatsoever. It is imperative that one pay heed to the minute particulars and the
text's historical context: otherwise, the text will be vastly misinterpreted and misrepresented in any discussion of the text. The students grossly
mischaracterized Abraham Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address "as a pro–abolitionist tract; they also seemed to think that President Lincoln was some divine

Behind The Great Emancipator Analysis

  • 1. Behind The Great Emancipator Analysis Behind the great emancipator's created public persona lies the real Abraham Lincoln, a man who not only used his political standing on slavery to get into presidency by consistently changing his opinion on them, but actually had an ulterior motive to free the slaves with a questionable document, the emancipation proclamation. While some historians like Eric Foner in The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery and Richard Striner's Father Abraham: Lincoln's Relentless Struggle To End Slavery would agree that this change can be described as growth, others like James Oakes essay Freedom National: The Destruction of Slavery in the United States, 1861 – 1865 would say that it was all part of his initial plan to free the slaves. James M. McPherson would complement Lincoln on his character, but other more daring historians would challenge the idea that Lincoln had actually freed the slaves with the emancipation proclamation, something Henry Louis Gates's Lincoln on Race & ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As Lerone Bennett Jr. quotes in his book, when the emancipation is "taken at face value, the legal shackles from four million black slaves" are removed but not the physical shackles that tie them to their owners. It is this fact that makes the efficiency of the Emancipation Proclamation questionable. In McPherson's review of Cox's book, he mentions Vincent Harding who makes the point that "Lincoln did not free the slaves, they freed themselves by escaping from their master to Union lines." Gates, Bennett and Lincoln himself also makes the observation that only 200,000 slaves were actually freed because of the Emancipation Proclamation. It was actually the thirteenth amendment that had actually freed the slaves on January 1st, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 7. Chapter Eight Of The American Era Chapter eight speaks of the growth of the American "empire", using political manipulation to control the south. During the reconstruction of the South, many Southerners felt less aided and crippled further due to taxes, political reformation, and of course the loss of slave labor. In terms of political corruption, the Southern states were forced back into the union but were denied representation in the Union, and used political control to rob the states financially. Taking the votes of the newly freed blacks also created a tension with white and black relations that last to even today, commonly from the Ku Klux Klan. If anything, the attempt to create stability to the war–torn South ended up making things worse in both the North and South. Chapter nine is discussing how Lincoln 's true legacy is placed, most notably the construction of the "American System" suggested by Henry Clay. With his presidency, Lincoln threatens that he will attack any state that fails to collect enough funds for its protectoral tariffs. Lincoln also issued large sums of money to the construction of transcontinental railroad lines. Finally, he forced the commission of the much needed national bank, the backbone of the American System his idol planned out.

The Reconstruction Era and its effects on Slavery with and after President Lincoln The Reconstruction Era which followed the Civil War was a period marked by a severe effort to re–establish a depleted and distraught society. The war, which was aimed at confronting the national dilemma of slavery, only led to subsequent problems over emancipation and an undefined condition of freedom. Some, who had naively assumed that ending slavery would resolve the problem of racial inequality, overlooked the prejudice and unpleasant feeling towards blacks. Lincoln's plan for reconstruction was aimed at reuniting southern states with the union and to strengthen the Republican Party in the South; which were his main supporters. One of the main ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In his 2nd Inaugural address, Lincoln advocated that the Civil War was God's punishment of a nation having human beings kept in bondage (Abraham Lincoln "Second Inaugural Address: March 4, 1865"). Just for a slight moment was Lincoln's goal realized before the acts of then President Johnson attempted to strip away Lincoln's foundation for freedom. Before Lincoln was assassinated he managed to get the thirteenth amendment passed in House after it failed to do so in 1864. This was important for Lincoln with elections coming up and he knew that if this wasn't passed his chances of reelection would be doubtful. The thirteenth amendment abolished slavery and involuntary servitude and was the first grant of civil rights given to African Americans ("Thirteenth Amendment: January 31, 1865"). The 14th Amendment was passed into law and protects the rights against state infringements, defines citizenship, prohibits states from interfering with privileges and immunities, requires due process and equal protection, punishes states for denying vote, and disqualifies Confederate officials and debts ("Fourteenth Amendment: June 16, 1866").

This new wage plan was offered to men over the age of 22 who had worked for Ford for at least 6 months, and whose lifestyles were approved by Ford's Sociological Department (150 investigators and support staff who maintained "employee standards").

  • 10. Cooper Union Conflict When Abraham Lincoln gave his Cooper Union Address it is doubtful that he knew its impact on the country and ultimately the future of the Union. In his Cooper Union Address, future president Abraham Lincoln thoroughly rebuked the southern Democrats Stephen A. Douglas' statements about the Republicans' slavery stance by using not only the oppositions wording against them, he supported his arguments with true examples sited from the signatories of the Constitution and their past voting record, from information gleaned during his career as a lawyer, and from his sense of honor and ethics. Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party had some very strong constituents, mainly those with very strong Free Soil tendencies. For this reason along with personal beliefs on Lincoln's part the Republicans, led by Lincoln in the presidential election, were strongly against the expansion of slavery into the territories By using past precedents Lincoln gave some serious weight to his arguments on the nature of the Republican's stance on slavery and the federal government's rights to limit slavery in the Territories. Since the opposing party's argument was that the framers knew more about the issue of slavery and its expansion than they did now. Lincoln turned this argument for the use of the Republicans by explaining the voting records of the majority of the men who signed the Constitution.

However, even though the Emancipation Proclamation recognize and maintain freedom of slaves, plenty of sources indicate that Lincoln was dedicated in Africa American's migration, which is sceptical that was he a racist completely in some degrees?

  • 13. Freedom National: The Destruction Of Slavery The Emancipation Proclamation was created by Abraham Lincoln to free the slaves, but then what? Historian: Eric Foner's The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery , Richard Striner's Father Abraham: Lincoln's Relentless Struggle To End Slavery , James Oakes essay Freedom National: The Destruction of Slavery in the United States, 1861–1865, James M.

Abraham Lincoln Going from being raised in a low income family to the sixteenth president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln gained much respect. He was one of the most well know presidents of the United States. He gave many powerful speeches that left the crowd astonished. Lincoln was a very honest person and later became known as Honest Abe.

The popular sovereignty principle was an idea of Abraham Lincolns rival, Stephen Douglas. After he pointed out those inconsistencies the rivalry became more intense.

Oakes interpretations of both men were very detailed in showing their reason and politics behind their positions they served in society on the topic of slavery. Abraham Lincoln, the republican, and Fredrick Douglass, the radical, two incredibly distinct people, yet both shared similar views towards their hatred on the institution of slavery and their highest hopes for freedom. "How can a relationship so different, yet a like lead to the road to emancipation of the slaves?" Both men had different reasons for their detestation toward slavery, yet both worked to bring the emancipation and fix the injustice regarding the slaves. Douglass worked by being a famous orator preached against slavery and eventually joined the Republican Party where he worked with Lincoln and the party to promote and work toward the end of slavery.

When analyzing the report I considered many aspects of the company in order to determine what exactly that separates Lincoln from their competition. First, I examined the ongoing influence that has been exerted by the founders of the company. Lincoln Electric was founded by James F. Lincoln at the turn of the 20th century. His influence in leadership and his approach toward the customer has stood the test of time. James believed that the success of his company lay with the customer and a motivated labor force. It is obvious that the customer 's interests, not the stockholder 's, should come first." In 1947 he said, "Care should be taken ... not to rivet attention on profit. Between 'How much do I get? ' and 'How do I make this better, cheaper, more useful? ' the difference is fundamental and decisive." (J, Lincoln) James valued customer satisfaction above all else, which inevitably led to the innovation and production of a great product that met the consumer's needs. His views on employee retention continue to be a guide within the company. If fulfilling customer needs is the desired goal of the company then employee performance and productivity are the means by which this goal can best be achieved. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
