Who was a better president abraham lincoln or george washington?

It's totally up to you! You can't go asking people this, but personally I would say Abraham Lincoln, but it is your choice.but you should always try to think for yourself Really it's just your opinion Washington had to face the power house known as Great Britain and Lincoln had to face his own nation's brothers I guess you can say. Washington had to go up against the strongest army of that time. Along with great generals and high tech weaponry at the time. Lincoln even though he had industry and resources on his side. He had to go against the greatest generals in America(which the greatest sided with the south) with some worst. Grant was called a butcher because of how he used his soldiers in combat causing large numbers of casulities not having a positive reputation and once the war was won he had to have the south join the union and recreate it without slavery. Their appearences signature wig and American commander war uniform and called the father of the U.S. Lincoln's black uniform top hat beard both symbolized their seperate time periods. It's definitely a close call


Who was the political opponent of Abraham Lincoln?

In the 1860 presidential election, which occurred before the Civil War began, Lincoln was the nominee of the Republicans. Stephan A. Douglas was nominated by the Democrats, but a pro-slavery faction walked out of the convention and nominated John C. Breckinridge. There was also fourth party made up of old-line Whigs and hold-overs from the American (Know-Nothing) party, and they nominated John Bell. All four candidates received electoral votes. In 1864, while the Civil War was still going on, Lincoln ran for a second term for President, and General George B. McClellan, who Lincoln had fired a few years earlier, ran against him. In the Senate elections of 1858, Abraham Lincoln lost to Stephan Douglas, the Northern Democratic Party's presidential nominee in 1860.
