hardship
Lincoln was a successful President without a doubt. While remembered for a great many things, his greatest achievement was the reuniting of the USA. In the process of all his great works, he became one of the most beloved US Presidents.
Lincoln's reelection in 1864 was due to Sherman's capture of Atlanta and his March to the Sea. (Lincoln did not run for President until 1860. Buchanan won in 1854.)
yes
yes i would say so because look at his success now he was a president he learned what he needed to in his life. i mean its bad that his mom and brother died and he didn't have a good relationship with his father but he still had a father and a stepmother that he loved. His wife Mary may not of been comforting but at least she was there for him and wanted to at least be part of his life. its also bad that he had a son that died when he was a toddler and a son that dies when he was 11 but he got through it and did what he needed to and became a president and told people what he thought. so i do think that his childhood was a success because if not he probably wouldn't of been a president.

Unequivocal NO. Had Abraham Lincoln lived, it may have. When he died, so died the spirit of reconciliation. The following decades were filled with exploitation and abuse of the local population from the carpetbaggers and their imposed power/governance.
Before being elected to the office of President, Abraham Lincoln served in both the state and national House of Representatives. Prior to his career in politics, Lincoln had success in banking and commerce.
They were a success for Stephen Douglas, who got elected as Senator. But it was Lincoln who got elected as President two years later.
He actually had a pretty good childhood, his family was well off due to his father's success as a dentist

''If we believe that tomorrow will be better we can bear a hardship about today'', ''There is no success without hardship'' and ''For it is not death or hardship which are fearful things, but the fear of death and hardship'' are some quotes about hardship.
Of course. There is no real success without taking risks. People who are afraid to try never accomplish anything difficult. I doubt that Lincoln took more risks than other successful people. There is a difference between taking risks and being reckless or foolhardy. People like Lincoln have a good idea of they can do and what is possible.
