These stirring words have inspired whole nations. But they do not stand up to critical scrutiny - which may be why Lincoln himself did not think much of this speech, hastily put together on the train down to Gettysburg.
In particular, 'Government by the people' is quite meaningless.
It was really just a big cheer for the freeing of the slaves.

Is there anything in the US Constitution that says government of the people by the people for the people or is it a saying attributed to Abraham Lincoln?
"By the people and for the people" was a phrase used by Lincoln in the Gettysburg address. The full quote reads: "A Government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the Earth" The US Constitution begins with "We the People..." before setting out its aims for the United States government; "We" connotes that the authors considered themselves to be, by definition, of the people. However, the exact phrase was Lincoln's.
